Bocholt-Herentals Canal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The Bocholt-Herentals Canal (also known as Kempisch Canal or Maas-Schelde Canal) was first part of the Kempische Vaart (1846). In the 1930s, the western part merged into the Albert Canal or was filled in. The eastern part remained, was widened and deepened (1926-8) and received its current name. However, it lost its role as the only waterway between the industry around Liège and the port of Antwerp. From then on, a lot of traffic was taken over by the shorter and modern Albert Canal.

Postel Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

Close to the Dutch border, the wooded Postel is located with its imposing abbey, which was founded in the twelfth century. It is the Premonstratensians who have cultivated the region since that time and hold hospitality in high esteem. They engage in forestry, agriculture and animal husbandry. To support themselves, they brew beer and make cheese. In the meantime, this has grown into a true, artisanal industry. One that tourists are only too happy to visit.

Cartier Heath

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

Characteristic of the area is the alternation between dry and wet parts. The Cartierheide consists of a large number of fens (such as Het Laarven and Pannegoor) and is crossed by the Dalems. The variation of these wet and dry areas in open and closed landscapes makes the heath an important biotope for countless plant and animal species.
