Of the 7 birdwatching points in the Blankaart, De Otter is the closest to the parking lot. It is a spacious hut, with a board at writing height in front of the benches. Practical for the birdwatcher who wants to write down his observations.

These singletacks in this neighborhood are never boring! Be careful, just like I said, small resistance is needed in Keuneleute, the gradient increases to just under 10%, the average is 5%. The worst climb is to enter at the south gate and keep to the right. Don't forget to visit the polder forest, closer to Westrozebeke.

Listen and watch the video in the chalet at 'The Bluff'. You can sit there quietly and follow the progress of the war in the area. To do this, follow the information signs to the right at Palingbeek cycle junction 33 and you will pass by.
