오데나르데‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪17‬개의 호수

With boardwalks and walking paths

Water has an attraction, so try to stop them.

The two nature reserves, Grootmeers and Kleinmeers, are located along the Scheldt. Grootmeers is approximately 19 ha in size. Kleinmeers is close to the Asper lock and is a relatively small area. The area is freely accessible to walkers from sunrise to sunset. Boots are often necessary in wet periods. In winter, when the water level is high, the path through the Grootmeers (even with boots) is often difficult to walk. Dogs (even those not on a leash) are not allowed, partly because of the free-roaming grazers. Make sure you do not walk between the cows or get too close to the calves. (Natuurpunt)

Since 1654, the castle domain, located along the Kasteelstraat in Lozer, has been owned by the della Faille d’Huysse family. The beautiful castle was called ‘’t Goed Uplosere’ in the 17th century. The block-shaped castle acquired its current neoclassical appearance during renovations in the 18th century. From the Kasteelstraat you can see the symmetrical rear facade. From the Appelhoekstraat you have a view of the front facade. The 19th century park in English landscape style consists of ponds, winding paths, bridges and appurtenances such as a walled vegetable garden, caretaker’s house, dog kennel, coach house, tower-shaped garden pavilion, farmyard and gatehouse. From the castle domain, a double avenue leads to the O.-L.-Vrouw van Bijstandkerk.

In the past, the Scheldt was a meandering river that overflowed its banks every winter, causing the surrounding area to be largely flooded. It was then a sought-after spot for many plants and animals. Every winter and spring, a large part is still flooded. The Kaaimeersen are the wintering and breeding ground for several typical, but often also rare meadow birds and waders. In short, a nice spot for a walk in the middle of nature!

Old Scheldt arm, with beautiful nature all around

B & B, for horse lovers. Very beautiful domain, unfortunately not accessible to us, regular hikers.

Small (2ha), but nice, this old Scheldt meander, lined with willows. Rich in fish and birds and - often more visible to the walker - rich in various species of dragonflies.
