In autumn, on wet surfaces, it can be very treacherous. You'll need your driving skills here.

The Kalkenvaart is a waterway between the village of Kalken and the Scheldt River. It runs through the Kalkense Meersen nature reserve and is very popular with anglers, hikers, and cyclists. A wide cycle and walking path runs alongside the canal. Since its dredging in 2022, the Kalkense Vaart has been very clean. You can cross the canal via the Roerdompbrug (Broedomp Bridge) and/or watch for fish swimming by.

The Butterfly Garden at Donkmeer in Berlare is a subtle yet valuable tribute to biodiversity. Unlike tropical butterfly cages, this garden is an open, natural space that, with a few targeted interventions, has been transformed into a true butterfly paradise. Here, numerous native butterfly species flutter freely among colorful flowers and nectar plants, which provide not only food but also shelter.

The Donkmeer lake in Overmere is more than just a picturesque expanse of water in the heart of East Flanders; it is a silent witness to centuries of labor and human perseverance. This area was once a vast peat bog, where peat—dried peat used as fuel—was dug by hand. This peat extraction shaped the landscape: deep pits formed where the peat was removed, and these later filled with water, creating the Donkmeer lake.
