A great path leads past the Eglegemvijver, an ideal place for surfers and sailing ship "learners", towards Antwerp.

The Eglegem Pond, located between Hombeek and Zemst, is a beautiful nature reserve of over 40 hectares. Originally created as a sand extraction pit for the construction of the E19 motorway, the area has grown into a valuable quiet area with great ecological value. Today, it is managed by Natuur en Bos (Nature and Forests) and a magnet for hikers, nature lovers, and fishermen.
The area is especially known as a wintering ground for waterfowl such as tufted ducks, grebes, and shelducks. Beavers have also recently taken up residence there. A 3-km walking path, recently renovated, runs around the pond. Dogs are welcome on a leash, and an off-leash area is provided.
Fishing, stand-up paddleboarding, and sailing are permitted through recognized associations, but swimming and motorized water sports are prohibited. Thanks to targeted nature management and good water quality, this area remains a safe and peaceful place for both people and animals. An absolute must for those who want to unwind in nature.
