Denderbelle Lock and Weir

Highlight • Bridge

The lock and weir complex also includes a fish passage in the form of a basin staircase. This is a construction that ensures that the fish can swim past the weir without any problems.

Cyclists/pedestrians can cross the Dender here via this lock. There is a shelter and picnic bench at the lock (St Onolfspolder side).

View of the River Scheldt

Highlight • Viewpoint

Through the Netherlands,
To the wide, deep sea,
The beautiful Scheldt flows
She brings health and life!
We rejoice:
O Scheldt! O Scheldt!
O mighty beautiful flood,

Towpath Along the Dender

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Largely car-free cycling on the towpath along the Dender. Perfect for those who like straight stretches along the water. If you want more nature, it is better to choose the road along the old dender bed: komoot.nl/highlight/3335227
