Nice ride next to the small nete canal

Interesting fortress 'Fort von Oelegem' on the side of the road. Actually not from the 2nd but from the 1st World War. Now a haven for bat protection.

Is just a fantastic ride! Small and narrow roads with little traffic (cars). Few cycle paths. Great cycling!

The Defense Line of Antwerp was decided upon by the choice of Antwerp as the National Reduit in 1859. The idea behind this was that Antwerp was most suitable as a last fortress until help from allies could arrive. The National Reduit would consist of: a siege wall, a fort belt and underwater settlements. The fort belt would consist of eight Brialmont forts (built in 1859) in an 18 km long belt from Wijnegem to Hoboken. After the Franco-Prussian War of 1870, it was initially decided to build three bridgehead forts and then to build an outer line adapted to more modern weapons. The latter plan was ratified by law of March 30, 1906. This main resistance position included 16 forts and 10 redoubts on the right bank and 5 forts and 2 redoubts on the left bank.

The Antitankgracht was constructed just before the Second World War to stop German tanks. Fortunately, that is no longer necessary today, but it does provide us with a nice location to cycle through.

The fort has been protected as a monument since 1995. The domain is privately owned and managed by the Fort Oelegem working group. The fort is used entirely as a bat reserve and is only accessible under the guidance of a guide on certain days and by appointment. Fishing is permitted on the fort moat with a permit. This can be obtained from the Fort Oelegem working group of Natuur2000. Cyclists can discover the fort together with the Fort van Kessel and the Fort van 's-Gravenwezel via the route 'Antitankgracht en heide' from the brochure "Herover de Forten". You can create your own route thanks to the cycling junctions. The Fort van Oelegem is located at junction 57.
