Kristalpark

Kristalpark III (Crystal Park III) is the business park of the future. And a special location for cycling. The twelve-kilometre-long bike path that was opened here in 2012 is unique in Flanders and, indeed, Western Europe. Not only can you visit the 1,337 ha industrial park by bike, but you can also admire a series of impressive windmills and the immense solar park along the way.
