ネイゲンボスのおすすめツーリングルート

水質安全を確保し、Dender川を航行可能な状態に保つため、フランダース地域にある8つの堰のうち6つが改修されます。Pollareの堰も改修の対象となっています。 堰の改修、技術棟の建設、および魚道の建設は、早ければ2026年を予定しています。建設には約2年かかる見込みです。 (Vlaamse waterweg)

The Dikken van Pamel is a beacon in Pamel along the Dender river, a mammoth of a landmark.

It's said that a man once passed through Pamel who was so tall and heavy that he defied the boundaries of the ordinary. Victor De Klerck, almost two meters tall and weighing, according to some, up to three hundred kilos, early on became a figure whispered about rather than spoken. On hot summer days, he would slide into the Dender River, and anyone who saw him swore he floated as if the river itself carried him. Passing boatmen carried the story along, and with every bend in the towpath, it became a little more fantastical. On Sundays, he appeared in church, where he needed three chairs—a figure that, generations later, still whispers through the village. And yet, despite his mythical stature, he stubbornly refused every circus director who wanted to exhibit him. As if he knew that some riddles are not meant for the public. Today, his statue stands by the Dender, not as certainty but as a question mark. A quiet reminder that sometimes, only one river flows between fact and fiction.

There are transverse (slow-down) ridges across the road. Annoying.

This is an interesting statue, it has no head. Located on the edge of Pamel

Beautiful castle, just like that in the Pajotteland.
