Return to Boesinghe, leave the road just taken on the left, and cross the railway (l. c.).
The road runs alongside the Yperlée river and canal for some distance. Numerous traces of footbridges are to be seen over both river and canal, the course of which can no longer be distinguished with certainty.
The road next turns sharply to the left, crosses the Lys-Yperlée Canal, then passes the dock of the Yser-Ypres Canal (photo above), and enters Ypres by the Dixmude Gate.
