This spiral bridge is a fun "attraction" during a bike ride. A lot further on you have another attraction "Cycling through the Water" at Bokrijk. Also very worthwhile. You imagine yourself at eye level of the water surface. This 200 meter long attraction was opened in 2016 and has already surprised many walkers and cyclists.
