The lock and weir complex also includes a fish passage in the form of a basin staircase. This is a construction that ensures that the fish can swim past the weir without any problems.

Towpath Along the Dender

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Largely car-free cycling on the towpath along the Dender. Perfect for those who like straight stretches along the water. If you want more nature, it is better to choose the road along the old dender bed: komoot.nl/highlight/3335227
