덴터젬‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪17‬개의 호수

Very cozy village square located at Machelen-put.

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.

The Zavelput is an old sand quarry that is now managed as a nature reserve. After the exploitation, the pit filled with water and a rich ecosystem was created. The site is 5.2 hectares in size, the pond itself about two hectares. You can go for a walk and observe birds from the observation hut. Nearby you will find the Goed te Beaulieu, a historic farm that dates back to the Frankish period. Behind the farm runs the Leie - it is very nice to walk along the banks. In 2024, the area was expanded on the north side: a forest was planted on a strip along the Leie, between the actual zavelput and the Vlasbrug. Source: https://www.toerisme-leiestreek.be/

In July 2005, Meulebeke suffered major flooding (including the entire domain of the nearby sports centre being completely submerged). Six years later, the province started major water management works, of which this double pond is one of the interventions. It should provide extra water storage during heavy rainfall, but the basin should also solve a second problem: that of drought for farmers. Water is deliberately left in the basin at all times, so that farmers can tap water from a distribution point that can be connected to tankers. A total of 55,000 cubic metres (or 5,500,000 buckets) of water can be stored in the 4.5 metre deep buffer basin. In order to give the aquatic plants and fish every chance, the well must never really become empty. Source: https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/i93cib59

In 2011, a buffer basin was constructed that is divided into four basins. Three basins are located here between Koolskampstraat and Egemstraat and one a little further away, at the corner of Egemstraat-Baertstraat. The buffer basin was constructed to prevent flooding; this by temporarily holding the rainwater and then discharging it in a delayed manner into the Breemeersbeek. In addition to its water management function, the buffer basin also has a recreational and ecological function. A Finnish track of 1030 m was constructed around it, where hikers can also enjoy a beautiful piece of nature. Police regulations were drawn up to prevent nuisance.

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

This castle and park are private property. A B&B has been operating here for several years. Domein was also opened in November for a VTT trip
