Gravel Path Along the Antitankgracht

Highlight • Trail

This passage under the E34 has recently been largely redeveloped. Nowadays it is no longer a narrow alley in the forest, but it is more comparable to the rest of the path along the Antitankgracht: a pleasant gravel path that is wide enough to pass each other. Only the connection with the Albert Canal and the part under the bridge still looks a bit run-down.

Fort Oelegem

Highlight • Historical Site

The fort was built between 1909 and 1914 to prevent an invasion. After 1918, the fort was rebuilt, its weapons replaced, and its ventilation and emergency exits were adapted.

During World War II, the German Wehrmacht used the fort as a storage facility. After the liberation, it served the US Army as an anti-aircraft defense center against V1 rockets.

In 1947, the fort's military use finally ended, and it became private property.

Today, it is home to approximately 1,300 bats. On certain days and by appointment, you can visit it as part of a guided tour.
