With the construction of regional flood zone "Jutse Plassen", the province has taken important action with the support of Europe to protect Koningshooikt from severe flooding.
Jutse Plassen is 11 hectares and 30 hectares large and can collect 100,000 cubic meters of water. You can compare this with ten football fields with one meter of water. The area has two large swimming pools with permanent water and a few smaller amphibians. A larger waterway ensures the possibility of running water inside and outside the area. Forest 2.7 hectares are also part of the flood area.
