Blankenbergse Vaart

Highlight • River

The story of dikes and drainage canals is linked to the reclamation of the coastal plain north of Bruges. Dikes protect against incoming water from the sea. Drainage channels protect against flooding from inland by draining excess rainwater. One of the important drainage channels in the coastal plain around Bruges is the Blankenbergse vaart, a 12 kilometer long waterway between Bruges and Blankenberge. The network of smaller canals and ditches drains the water to this central drainage canal, which in turn leads the water to the sea.

Uitkerkse Polder

Highlight • Natural

The Uitkerkse Polder owes its international fame to birds. Birds come here all year round to catch their breath after their long migrations. From 15 November to 15 February it is goose season and you can observe all kinds of geese in the Uitkerkse Polder, such as the lesser white-fronted goose, greylag goose and barnacle goose. Tens of thousands of lesser white-fronted geese, a large part of the population from Spitsbergen, spend the darkest part of the winter in the coastal polders. Together with the other ducks and geese, the birds sometimes form a group of more than a hundred thousand water birds. An unparalleled spectacle!

Houtave Village

Highlight • Settlement

Houtave is a sub-municipality of Zuienkerke and has existed since the 9th century. Houtave and Nieuwmunster used to be one domain, but after the retreat of the sea in the Middle Ages, two village centers emerged.
It couldn't be more peaceful and authentic.
