Icon description route Description

We take a walk from the station to the Chestnut Forest.

This forest was mapped in 1778 by Count De Ferraris as the 'Castaniën Bosch' and 'Speckbosch'. Wet meadows, often bordered by hedgerows, now surround the forests. Contrary to what the name suggests, there are almost no chestnut trees in the forest today. Be careful, this forest is very marshy in rainy weather.

We continue to De Bereklauw, an alternative living community led by 'De Gosse', where many artistic works and artworks can be admired on the premises. A sanitary stop can be made here.

Afterwards, we return to the station of Herent.
