The Humbeek-Sas lift bridge is a classic metal lift bridge that spans the Brussels–Scheldt Sea Canal in Humbeek, a sub-municipality of Grimbergen. Built in 1968, it is one of three identical lift bridges on the canal, along with: Brielen Bridge (Tisselt) Verbrande Bridge (Grimbergen) All three share the same dimensions: 38.4 m long and 11.6 m wide.

A forest path runs through the Schiplaken Estate. Don't forget to stop at Schiplaken Castle. It's an old medieval castle site with its characteristic high courtyard and farmyard. An information board on site provides further explanation.

Beautiful views and wonderful cruising

The Eglegem Pond covers over 43 hectares and was created in the late 1960s as a sand extraction pit for the construction of the E19 motorway. During the winter, large flocks of waterfowl settle here, including shelduck, tufted duck, pochard, gadwall, grebe, coot, and black-headed gull. Eco-friendly bank and roadside management is being implemented around the Eglegem Pond.

Beautiful crossing over the Dijle...

The Eglegem Pond, located between Hombeek and Zemst, is a beautiful nature reserve of over 40 hectares. Originally created as a sand extraction pit for the construction of the E19 motorway, the area has grown into a valuable quiet area with great ecological value. Today, it is managed by Natuur en Bos (Nature and Forests) and a magnet for hikers, nature lovers, and fishermen. The area is especially known as a wintering ground for waterfowl such as tufted ducks, grebes, and shelducks. Beavers have also recently taken up residence there. A 3-km walking path, recently renovated, runs around the pond. Dogs are welcome on a leash, and an off-leash area is provided. Fishing, stand-up paddleboarding, and sailing are permitted through recognized associations, but swimming and motorized water sports are prohibited. Thanks to targeted nature management and good water quality, this area remains a safe and peaceful place for both people and animals. An absolute must for those who want to unwind in nature.
