At the highest point of Helshoven, you can now enjoy a breathtaking view of the Haspengouw landscape. Artist Frits Jeuris has created a unique work of art from dozens of felled fruit trees from the area.
“Helsh(ea)ven”, a wooden artwork consisting of 90 standard cherry trees, each fifty years old, was struck by the cherry blight virus at the end of 2016, a contagious plant disease that causes small fruits in cherries. Now the felled trees are getting a second life. The artwork symbolises the dynamic landscape of Haspengouw.
