Confluence of the Dijle and Nete = Rupel

Highlight • River

At this location you have a view of the starting point of the shortest river in Belgium - the Rupel. In the municipality of Schelle, only 12 km further Rupel gives way to the Scheldt. On the other side of the Scheldt lies Rupelmonde.

Here you can rest for a while, have a picnic, shelter from the rain, check some information on the signs, etc. A versatile place by the blue bridges.

Beautiful bridge constructions over the Dijle and the Nete. The bridges are a very important link in the region for commuting and recreation.
Bridges connect people and landscapes. Know that it is quite busy here on weekends.

At this location you have a good view of the confluence of the Nete and the Dijle. This is where the story of the Rupel begins.
Because this river has no source, the Rupel is unique in Belgium. The Drie Rivierenpunt in Rumst is therefore a special attraction.
The Rupel is only 12 kilometers long.

Den Bocht Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle is hidden in the foliage behind the Rupeldijk. In the past, this building was a luxurious hunting pavilion. The tower that you can see from the Rupeldijk was built in neoclassical style (1850-1860)
Unfortunately, the castle is privately owned.
