Project summary

Edit project overview to modify the project summary.

In Keent, a nature area was developped. The former river bed was partly dug out and connected to the Meuse River. Keent was made into an island, surrounded with water and nature. The result of the project is a wide gulley in the middle of forests, valleys, swamps and recreational facilities. Also the water level in the Meuse river was lowered by 3.5 cm. Horses and cows graze the area to combat the growth of trees and bushes.
