Nature-friendly banks

At this point, the banks of the canal are still covered with low vegetation, where many animal species (insects, birds, small mammals, etc.) can catch their breath. This nature in the immediate vicinity of the canal helps to reinforce the role of the canal as an ecological corridor, as a migration corridor and as a connection between green spaces. Two kilometres downstream, from the Biestebroek dock, the riparian vegetation will stop permanently. Only about ten km further, at Neder-Over-Heembeek, the banks turn green again.
