Hiking

A beautiful calming pond. Scheepsput is a place where sailors were trained a century ago.

A bit hidden, but a very nice pond/picnic area

Hiking

The (historical) Scheepsput can be found in the beautiful green Sint-Pietersveld. You would hardly believe it, but this well was dug in the mid-19th century to build a three-master. The large sailing ship served as a training ground for the sailors of a reform school in the area (now Community Institution De Zande). The pond was given the name 'Het Schip', but was transformed by the local population into the Scheepsput.
