The beautiful location on the Gaasperplas is partly a back part of the Floriade that took place in this area in the 1980s.
You can still find traces of this, eccentric trees, gardens, plantations creations are reminiscent of a beautifully landscaped decor of the Floriade at the time.
Walking around the lake is an hour’s walk and you can also regularly see people walking the migratory bird path.
In the summer, in the area near the metro stop, you will smell many barbeques smells and you will find children and bathers playing across the street at play paradise Ballorig, you can also surf, sail and canoe.
There is even a separate area for nude recreation!
