The Stekense Vaart or the Stekene Canal (4.6 km) is a canal that connects the Moervaart with Stekene. In the past, the canal extended to Hulst and had an important economic function. Surrounded by quiet areas along both banks, the Stekense Vaart now forms the setting for soft recreation. (Wikipedia)

It is well worth stopping on top of the bridge. The view from the Stekense Vaart looks like a landscape painting. The bridge is named after honorary citizen Frans Coppens from Klein-Sinaai. As receiver-clerk he made a great contribution in his career. The canal used to be an important connection between the Dutch Hulst and Ghent.

From 1873, Klein-Sinaai had its own station. At the back there was a marshalling yard to load the freight from a platform onto the train. Fun fact: the station barrier was rolled manually onto the track when a train was approaching. The Klein-Sinaai railway line was closed halfway through the 20th century. Nowadays it is a popular stop for walkers and cyclists. Source: municipality of Stekene

The Langelede was dug to enable the transport of peat. The peat came from a bog area, owned by the abbey of Marquette. It is not clear when this happened, although it is known that the name 'langhe lee' first appeared in 1317. After the bog soils were exhausted, the Langelede fell into disuse. The revival came in 1775, when the Moervaart and Langelede were canalised to enable the drainage of excess water from Ghent. The route via the current Lange Boomstraat was replaced by a new section towards the Oudenburgse sluis. However, the treaty of 1839 limited the drainage to the Netherlands and the Langelede had to be dammed. Afterwards, it was still used for the transport of white sand and sugar beets.
