The Leie River in Ghent
THE LEIE RIVER
The Leie flows through France and Belgium . It starts in the Lisbourg area and flows after 202 kilometres in Ghent ( East-Flanders ) in the River Scheldt . Véronique ’ s favourite sections at the Leie River are in Ghent and in Sint-Martens- Latem . There , you can see many water lilies , weeping willows , fancy houses and houseboats . It feels like Miami ! In addition , a yacht club near a photogenic iron bridge is the perfect place to cool off with a drink on the terrace . In Ghent , the Leie brings you to the heart of the medieval city . A tour there is an incredible experience ; the town is a real gem . Arriving at the Castle of Gravensteen is , for her , the highlight of this tour .
