A first with Komoot. And delighted to discover this place as I have been frequenting Ostend for 30 years. A moment of restful and serene relaxation where birds are numerous and easily observed. Not to mention the many jellyfish swimming and visible from the banks. An ideal place for a picnic. There are plenty of benches to enjoy the place.

Beautiful cycle path along the canal.

Small lock.

A green lung in the centre of Middelkerke. 4.5 ha of peace and quiet, close to the beach. The pond was redesigned in an environmentally friendly way. The cosy seating areas invite you to take a break. Children can get rid of their energy on a large playground. Wide borders with flowering plants ensure an intense nature experience all year round. The Normand Park is open every day from 9:00 to sunset.

The Normandpark is located in the centre of Middelkerke-Bad. It is an oasis of green and tranquillity near the sea. You will find the largest and most popular playground in our municipality.

The Creek Area around Ostend is a unique wetland zone, with a network of creeks, marshes, reed beds and grasslands. These creeks were created by the natural silting up of rivers and other waterways. The area has a rich biodiversity, which makes it ideal for a nature walk.

The Grote Keignaert is located right next to Zandvoorde and is a beautiful nature reserve. You can spot all kinds of birds there. In the area around the Keignaert you will also find fascinating flora, with a number of plants that only thrive in salty soils such as sea rush and salt rush. There are also a surprising number of butterflies to spot, such as the brown argus, the hay animal, and brown and orange sand eyes. A new cycle path was recently constructed between the Libellaan and the Grintweg, and a separate cycle path was also created along the Grintweg. Furthermore, the City of Ostend also constructed two platforms from where you can admire the beautiful, extensive Keignaertkreek. A walking path was constructed around the Zandvoorde skating track, so that local residents, joggers and walkers now have easier access to this nature zone. The asphalt surface between the skating track and the Kapittelstraat was completely removed. The zone became a grassland in which a grass path is mowed for walkers. This also applies to the connection between Libellaan and Keignaertlaan. There too, a grass path is being mowed for walkers in an ecologically managed grassland.
