Icon description route Description

Departure: OLV Church parking - Oude Molenweg 15 - Zuienkerke

Meetkerke, an authentically preserved village with a beautiful little church and an old but well-kept cemetery. And there are even local dining establishments where you can enjoy something after the walk!

We start the walk along the Blankenbergse Vaart to the Great Mill. This windmill has a scoop wheel to transfer the excess water from the Moeren to the Blankenbergse Vaart. Then we walk through the Meetkerkse Moeren, a marshy flood area with lots of reeds along the streams and waterways. Staying on the paths is the key. Cutting corners may seem shorter, but it can lead to surprises (and wet feet).

Next, we follow along the bike path the Ghent-Ostend canal and then through the fields back to Meetkerke. This second part is fully paved asphalt, but apart from a few horse riders and cyclists, there's virtually no traffic.
