You can't get through here at high tide.

In the facade of the abbey you can admire the different construction periods (read timeline).

Beautiful car-free piece of nature. Very pleasant to drive

Piece of lock at Denderleeuw towards Aalst

In 1859 it was decided to make the Dender navigable for ships of 300T along its entire course. The Teralfene lock is 41.85 m long and 5.20 m wide so that ships of 300T can be locked (passing through a lock). All locks between Ath and Aalst have approximately the same dimensions. All these locks are also still manually operated. Like all locks on the Dender, the Teralfene lock is also a weir lock. This means that there is a weir next to the lock. In contrast to canals, the water flows into the river. When the lock gates are closed, the water must be able to flow further. The Dender has 12 locks and one tidal lock in Dendermonde. The drop (difference in height) is 1.6 m to 2.8 m. The Teralfene lock is the smallest because the drop is barely 60 cm. The water level in Aalst is 50 cm lower than the water level behind the Teralfene lock. The Teralfene lock will most likely be demolished during the planned modernisation of the Dender. The water level upstream would drop. This is positive for the industry and the residents who are located upstream and regularly have problems with flooding.

The Hopveld Ten Bos is located on the Letterveldweg, a paved almost traffic-free road. A nice concrete track, but the risk of water and even mud in a sinking is quite high. The hop field is no longer there.

The water can rise dangerously high here.

With the right weather you get beautiful reflections in the water here.
