Hiking

The originally strongly meandering Leie was straightened for the benefit of shipping. The canalization was realized here in 1972, as a result of which Kasteel Te Lake could suddenly no longer be reached via the Limnanderdreef straight from the center of Zulte, but now came to lie "on the other side of the Leie". (and as a result of which the Vierfrontendreef in Oeselgem no longer runs over the Leie)
