Confluence of the Demer and the Dijle

Highlight • River

Officially, the Demer flows into the Dijle, but at the confluence of the two, in Werchter, the Dijle is a smaller stream than the Demer. A possible explanation for why the river continues to be called Dijle is that the Dijle flows through the historically more important city of Leuven than the Demer with Aarschot and Diest.

Demer Towpath

Highlight • Cycleway

If it is on the way, definitely plan for it. Finest asphalt and quiet. So if it is not a detour, clearly recommended!

Soldiers' Bridge over the Demer

Highlight • Bridge

This Bailey Bridge is an established architectural heritage that was indeed only constructed in the early 1950s as an exercise by sappers. The link where you can consult this yourself can be found at inventaris.onroerenderfgoed.be/erfgoedobjecten/216479

There are several picnic benches on the north side of the bridge (and therefore the Demerdijk Noord). On the south side you are just a few hundred meters from the place where the Winge flows into the Demer.
