General information about Flood plain of the Yser
Op regelmatige tijdstippen treedt de Ijzer buiten haar oevers. Het is dan interessant om te toeren in het overstromingsgebied van de IJzer. Als het dan nog eens enkele dagen vriest kun je er prachtige winterlandschappen fotograferen of… zelfs schaatsers! Uitkijkpunten zijn de weides tussen Noordschote en Reninge, Roesbrugge en de brug over de Ijzer nabij Elzendamme.
Visitor tips Flood plain of the Yser
General tips:
1) if you are looking for other nearby attractions, consult our Tourist map of Top.Vlaanderen.
2) You can consult our overview lists: by category ( e.g. timeline, size, ...) or by region
3) You can also always consult tourist services: see our overview of tourist services
Tip 1: watersnood kan tot gevaarlijke situaties leiden. Breng je medemens, jezelf en de dieren niet nodeloos in gevaar. Ramptoerisme hoeft niet persé als “slecht” te worden bestempeld, maar zorg er altijd voor dat je noch de lokale bewoners noch de hulpdiensten hindert of tot last bent.
Tip 2: If you want a nice view of the Ijzer, you can also visit, for example, "The corridor of death" at Diksmuide. They have an observation platform.
