Gentbrugse Meersen: walk with guide

Sun, 13 Sept 2026 · 10:00
Gentbrugse Meersen, Gentbrugge
Free
An experienced nature guide takes you on a route of about 5 kilometers. De Gentbrugse Meersen is 1 of the 5 Ghent green poles. Various services of Stad Gent have made this a green place where the Ghent resident can come to rest over the past 20 years in consultation with external partners, including Natuurpunt. They did not do that by randomly letting go and leaving everything to nature. But by a plan, created after carefully looking at and understanding the landscape. For centuries, the landscape has been a crossroads of different users and sometimes conflicting interests. How do we guard and preserve the cultural-landscape traces of this history? Do we speak of a nature-inclusive cultural landscape or heritage-inclusive nature? Food for thought! Practical info: You cover about 5 kilometers together with the guide, in a loop. Provide suitable footwear and walking clothing. Accessibility: The walk is not suitable for wheelchair users or persons who are less mobile.
