The Leie in the centre of Deinze

Highlight • River

The Leie flows quietly through the centre of Deinze and forms a picturesque waterway with green banks and charming bridges. Along the river you will find cosy terraces and benches where you can enjoy the rippling water and the passing boats.

Leieoever Running and Sprint Track

Highlight • Structure

Under the banner "Road to LA 2028," the city of Deinze transformed the asphalt towpath on the left bank of the Leie River into a practice/competition zone for those who want to compete with friends (or, perhaps, just passing by) in a sprint event, the 400m, 800m, or 1200m, and the mile. There are marked start and finish lines in both directions, and even four numbered lanes for the sprint.

Summer Bar The Belder Forest

Highlight • Cafe

Don't be mistaken: Belderbos isn't the name of a nearby forest, but rather the family name of one of the two initiators: Marc Belderbos, an architect-engineer, and Lies De Maeyer, a painting restorer.
On Friday and Saturday evenings, there's often live music, especially (Latin American and African) world music.
