This creek connects to the Boerekreek to the west and to the Oudemanskreek to the east. It contains brackish water. The creek lies directly north of the Leopold Canal. Due to silting, the creek could no longer drain, which caused problems for agriculture. Therefore, around 2000, the drainage to the Leopold Canal on the east side was improved, the creek was also dredged, and the banks were reinstated to the nature reserve. (Wikipedia)

There are 15 ponds in Het Leen, three of which are allowed to fish. The water from the ponds used to serve as firefighting water for ammunition depot fires. The ponds were created because earthen walls (merlons) were constructed around the ammunition depots to prevent further disaster in the event of an explosion.

The Oostpolder Creek is located just north of the Leopold Canal and east of the road between Bentille and Sint-Jan-in-Eremo.
