    Tips

    Hiking

    From 1867 to 2008 (!) a railway line ran here, between Moerbeke and Rostijne (in Zelzate), which was once part of line 77 from Sint-Gillis-Waas to Zelzate. The stretch between the Moerbeke sugar factory and Zelzate lasted the longest.
    From 1980 onwards, the dismantled parts of that railway line were converted into an asphalted walking and cycling path (one of the first of its kind). Here and there, references to that railway past were preserved or built, like here the bridge over the Langelede.
