    Hiking

    Welcome to De Galgebossen. Who can imagine that in this area, full of natural beauty and restful silence, until the early 1700s, gallows were literally ready for the convicts… In recent centuries, these gallows made way for no fewer than 150 different species of plants and 24 species of butterflies. With a bit of luck, even a deer, fox or marten will cross your path during a walk, bike ride or horseback ride…

    Very nice walk, but some places a lot of mud. Definitely recommended.
