Kayaking in Belgium

I bought two kayaks in the U.S. two years ago for my family.  Here in Belgium I have not discovered good places for kayaking until yesterday.  There are good rivers for kayaking in Belgium, such as  River Ourthe and River Lesse.  But, these are "rivers" where water runs one way.  How can I bring back my kayaks to my car parked at a starting point after enjoying kayaking?  Some experts say that kayaking on river requires two vehicles to transport kayaks. Let's suppose that there two persons who want to enjoying kayaking on river.  They drive their cars separately to a certain point around a river and put down their kayaks there.  They drive their cars to a destination point and park a car there.  They return to the starting point with the other car.  They enjoy paddling downstream.  Then they load their kayaks on the car parked at the destination point, return to the starting point, and leave together with their cars.   It is a quite complicated process.  What if there is no second car available?  Then, we can use a bike.  When you leave for kayaking, you need to load not only kayaks but also a bike on a car.  Arriving at a starting point, you need to unload kayaks and your co-kayakers.  You drive your car with the bike to a destination point, park the car there, and return to the startingpoint, riding the bike.  And, you can enjoy padding to the destination point and load the kayaks on the car.  You drive back to the starting point and bring back the bike.  This is also quite complicated.  And, if the distance between the starting point and the destination point is quite long, then riding a bike between the two points makes a kayaker exhausted before paddling.  That is why kayak rental services are provided around rivers.  Kayakers who rent kayaks don't need to come back to a starting point to take a car or a bike.  All that they should do is just enjoying paddling downstream.  But, it is expensive to rent a kayak (e.g., 10 to 20 euros for an hour).

Then, is there no place for kayakers who own kayaks in Belgium?  Of course, coast wise paddling is a good option.  There are nice beaches and shores in Belgium, such as De Panne and Ostend.  But, kids are afraid of paddling on shores because of big waves.  Another option is paddling on a lake.  Is there a lake in Belgium?  You may say that "I have never heard about a lake in Belgium and Belgium is not Switzerland".  But there are a few lake in Belgium and you can enjoy kayaking there.  I discovered a website that we can enjoy paddling on Les Lacs de l’Eau d’Heure.  According to the website, we can rent kayaks and use our own kayaks there.  So, gladly I visited "Espace fun - Laurent Hubeaux" with my family.  The lake - Les Lacs de l’Eau d’Heure - looked excellent.  The facility - Espcae fun - provided kayak-rental service but does not allow me to access their own shore with my own kayak.  What a disappointing.  That was different from their advertisement!

I did not want to frustrate my wife and kids and drove back a little bit downward.  I found out a decent shore where many people were doing picnic and swimming and some of them were riding inflatable kayaks.  There are many small-size wind yachts too.  It was wonderful.  We enjoyed kayaking on the peaceful lake more than 2 hours.
