Description
The alternation of heathland, fens, dunes and forests creates a fantastic landscape in nature reserve the Kalmthoutse Heide. You will find many rare plants and animals. In August and September, when the heather turns purple, everything looks extra beautiful. You will discover it thanks to numerous marked trails.
This walk is a suggestion loop on the Kempense Heide hiking junction map.

Sunday, April 25, 2021 by Kim EngelenSo instead of walking a route of 8.6km I walked a route that was much longer. I started at 1:30 p.m. and didn't get back to the parking lot until 6 p.m., and then I had to hike a long way back along the same route, so if you want to hike here I recommend following the site of the heath itself.

Sunday, April 25, 2021 by Kim EngelenYesterday I went to follow the hiking node route indicated here in the heathland, but at a certain point you can't find point 27 and 99 at all. Once at home I looked at the site of the heath itself and it appears that the nodes here are no longer up to date, according to the site of the heath the walking routes are indicated with animal signs.
