ベルラーレの天然記念物・トップ20

The viewing platform, strategically located at the intersection of the four municipalities that form the Kalkense Meersen, not only offers stunning views of the green landscape and the old Scheldt arm, but also allows visitors to observe the landscape's evolution over the years. According to Michaël Crapoen of Natuurpunt Scheldeland, the platform is a real asset because it offers the opportunity to experience nature from a different perspective. In addition, numerous recreational cycling and walking routes converge here. (Scheldt Valley National Park)

Nice addition to the area, but actually a bit too low to view the entire area

New viewing platform nature point is a tribute to Groene Lieve: “A monument in the nature conservation of the Kalkense Meersen” The platform that looks out 6.5 meters high above the Nature Reserve is also in a symbolic place. “As a young kid I still remember well that Lieve’s red and small Fiat was always parked at this place on the Blokstraat while she was clearing litter, handing out leaflets to hikers and reprimanding farmers. Always busy for nature”, says Peter Claus. The platform is located at a nerve point in the Kalkense Meersen close to the new Roerdompbrug and offers hikers a unique view of the Oude Schelde. That arm was dug out again a few years ago. Since then beavers have been living there again and from the platform you can spot deer and other animals and birds. “It offers a view of the past and the future of our National Park.”

The peace of nature

The redevelopment of the duck decoy is part of the Berlare Broek-Donkmeer nature development project. This project fits in with the vision of the Berlare municipal council to give the popular Donkmeer and its surroundings a contemporary look. The site of the duck decoy was given a thorough makeover. It was redeveloped with respect for the most vulnerable zones and remains open to the public. (Public space database)

13世紀から、スヘルデ川はウェテレン、カルケン、スヘルレベレの間を優雅に蛇行していました。1890年頃、船舶の航路を3.5キロメートル短縮する近道が作られました。古い川床は堆積物で埋まりましたが、2018年にカルケンセ・メ儿センの川沿いの特徴を回復するために、オウデ・スヘルデ川が再び掘削されました。ジャンクション24の近くで、古い川のカーブがその栄光のすべてで再びせせらぎます。展望台からそれを賞賛することができます。(Routen.be)
