A weir was then built in the Dommel, which was channeled in the 1950s. In 2006, a 960 m long fish passage was opened. This bridges a height difference of 1.8 meters. The river lamprey, the roadside and the chub can now swim upstream again, while the bitterling, which lives in stagnant water, also benefits from this.

Hiking

Fish passages are structures in dams or pumping stations that make these blockages in waterways passable for migrating fish species.
