슬루이스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Just before Sluis, quiet road.

Very beautiful vast nature reserve very close to beach and sea. Walking, running, cycling, horse riding...

The drowned black polder near Nieuwvliet-Bad is a polder that was reclaimed from the sea and dammed in 1623, but which the North Sea reclaimed in a major storm surge in 1802: the dyke broke and the resulting hole flooded the land.

During quiet moments you can cycle through it with wide tires, otherwise you can take a walk, which is beautiful to see.

Easy connection between houses and the drowned polder

In the 13th and 14th centuries, this sea arm - ’t Zwyn - was an important waterway to Bruges. This waterway was created after the sea had penetrated the land around the beginning of the Christian era. The cities of Bruges, Damme and Sluis were located on the Zwin and became flourishing trading centres. But the channel became increasingly shallow and eventually unnavigable. That is why the Zwin was later largely poldered. Nature then took over here. Source: https://www.hetzeeuwselandschap.nl/natuurgebieden/het-zwin

Great scenery, unpaved bike paths.

The Zwin, whether it is Belgian or Dutch, does not matter, it is a beautiful nature reserve. The Zwin is a slufter: a beach plain behind the dunes that is in open connection with the sea. Directly behind the gully mouth lies a sandy beach, further inward lie dunes and salt marshes. Behind the row of dunes lie two small polders, the Kievittepolder and the Oudelandsepolder.
