On this segment you will get to know the nature reserve De Linie. It is an old military defense line of canals, forts and redoubts that were built in 1701 - 1702 by the French to defend Flanders against an attack from the Republic of Holland. The slight elevations of the current path and the wide canals are still silent witnesses from this period. The many water features are now a habitat for many water birds.
In short, a nice path where the past and present overlap.
