You will always come across many cyclists along the Scheldt.

The largest flood plain in Flanders lies in the Polders of Kruibeke along the Scheldt River. Don't worry, flooding only happens a few times a year. Every other day of the year, you can walk, cycle, play, or fish carefree: it's all possible in the Polders of Kruibeke. The paths lead you through a diverse landscape of mudflats and salt marshes, alder swamp forests, and meadow bird habitats. Don't forget your binoculars for wildlife spotting. It's definitely worth a visit!

Hoge Mouw is located behind the Kabouterberg play forest in the municipality of Kasterlee. You can participate in guided walks, exciting activities, and fun events. You can also request a guided walk for your group. (Province of Antwerp)

The wetter the better...

For the Formula 1 fans: this corner is just like Eau Rouge and Raidillon!

Perhaps you've already spotted a small tower from afar, proudly rising above the greenery and the Rupeldijk. The tower belongs to Den Bocht Castle, situated in a bend in the Rupel River. However, this small castle wasn't the first structure on this site. A 16th-century map already shows two moated farms: De Bocht Farm and the old stone fortress Steendere, which some even believe dates back to Roman times. Remnants of this can be recognized as a large body of water just behind the Rupeldijk.

In Blaasveldbroek, you can enjoy a diverse nature reserve with swamp forests, meadows, and ponds, where you can spot beavers and otters and observe a variety of birds. There are walking and cycling trails, a dog area, and a play area with a tree-top course for children. You can also fish, go on a beaver safari, or have a picnic, with a reception area and restrooms nearby.

N.V. Brouwerij Moortgat, founded by Leonard Moortgat in 1871 (see the facade stone with the date and the mention of J.L. Moortgat/M.H. De Block), initially as a mixed family business, a farm with an accompanying vinegar and beer brewery. Due to the growing success of the brewery, where the first "Duvel" was reportedly brewed in 1927, the facility was expanded and renovated several times. Today, the brewery buildings are relatively recent, the oldest of which date back to the second quarter of the 20th century. (Inventory of Immovable Heritage)
