    Car-free, picturesque asphalt road along the Ieperlee.

    Translated by Google •

      The Ieperlee is a partly canalized watercourse.
      The Ieperlee runs from the West Flemish Heuvelland via the city of Ypres to the river IJzer, near the Knokkebrug on the border of Diksmuide, Houthulst and Lo-Reninge. The Ieperlee is canalized between Ypres and the Yser and is also called the Ypres-Yser Canal. This canal is 17 km long. The Oude Ieperlee runs somewhat parallel along the left bank of the canal, which discharges into the canal at Drie Grachten.

      During the First World War, the Ieperlee was located in the front between the Yser Front and the Ypres Salient. The lock was then destroyed and later replaced by two locks. Later this canal became too small to have any economic importance, and now it is only used by pleasure boats and fishermen.
