Icon description route Description

In the southeast of Geel, the Grote Nete meanders lazily through the fields of the Malesbroek nature reserve. It encompasses no less than 100 hectares of water-rich landscape that is biologically valuable. At its center lies a large pond: a remnant of former peat extraction. In Malesbroek, dry sand ridges covered with coniferous forests and heathland give way to a rugged stream valley with reed beds and swamp forests—the preferred habitat of countless bird species. Don’t forget your boots and binoculars!
