Description
Beautiful, varied walk through the De Most-Keiheuvel nature reserve.
www.natuurenbos.be writes the following about the nature reserve:
"De Most-Keiheuvel is an area of 540 hectares, located along the upper course of the Grote Nete in the municipality of Balen. What is special about this area is the combination of two totally different natural cores that seamlessly connect. De Most is an extremely wet valley area, while the higher Keiheuvel is characterized by dry, open inland dunes. You can find dunes all over Keiheuvel, but the most beautiful part lies behind the airfield. European top nature that everyone can enjoy by walking, cycling, on horseback, and even in a wheelchair (not this walk)."

Wednesday, June 3, 2026 by joeri smetsI just took this route. The only section you can't get through is between junction 10 and junction 5—there are lots of nettles and everything is under water.
