Path Across the Fields

Highlight • Trail

Even if everything seems the same; between the fields there are always new views and panoramas. You have to get involved in this tour on the water, keep looking into the distance and then discover the details right in front of your feet. Therein lies the charm.

The Yser at Roesbrugge

Highlight • River

In Roesbrugge you have the choice between life and death - related to the river. Because the city center is located along the river IJser (i.e. the "living" river). The backwater of this river, the Flemish name "Tote IJzer", forms the northern border of the city center.

Roesbrugge is known as the "charming village of the Westhoek". In earlier times it was a prosperous city. A village with a rich trading history that has preserved its heritage: the three-nave Sint Martinus church, the old town hall and the many town houses still characterize the townscape today.

Not far from the church is the Werbrouck brewery. Be sure to try the caramel Dubel Bruin with a decent 8 percent alcohol.

Zwyne Becque

Highlight • River

The Zwijnebeek (French: Zwyne Becque) is a small river in the Yser basin. It flows through the northern French municipality of Rekspoede and forms the border between the French Oostkappel and the Belgian Poperinge for a while before it merges with the Yser at the border in Bambeke. The stream is approximately 7 km long and has a height difference of 12 metres between source and mouth.

Bridge over the Yser

Highlight • Bridge

You have to go over seven bridges? Sometimes just one is enough to get dry-shod to another shore. And then it doesn't have to be the Golden Gate or Tower Bridge - even a simple, beautiful little bridge like this ultimately serves its purpose.

View of Zwanenmeer

Highlight • Viewpoint

When you think of "View of Swan Lake" you probably first think of the world-famous fairytale ballet in two acts by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, which premiered in Saint Petersburg in 1892.
But far and wide no ballerinas, no dancers. Because this swan lake is actually a lake, named after the white (or black) birds of the duck family.
Here, areas of water in which clouds are reflected alternate with polder meadows and offer a charming view. Only the horizon in the distance is able to end this interplay with its sheer presence.
