Icon description route Description

Dunes in the Kempen? Sure. After the last ice age, the expanding sand of the Grote Nete created sandy hills. Today in Geel-Bel you will discover an ancient and typical Kempen landscape: high, dry land dunes and low, wet stream valleys.
The land dunes make for beautiful landscapes with a very distinctive flora and fauna. Pedunculate oaks and mountain pines determine the image. Typical inhabitants of the dunes are digger wasps, sand bees and sand beetles. On the dry sand ridges you walk through extensive coniferous forests, beautiful moors and vast sand drifts.
