    Hiking

    Here, near the Chapel of Our Lady in Need and the "Islands" with the former and now dilapidated center of the "Association for Ecology and Nature Conservation," you can start a walk through the De Warande nature reserve, managed by Natuur & Bos.

    You'll find meadows, ponds, and relatively recent plantings of deciduous trees. You'll also find water meadows and remnants, some of which are still in use, of the clever irrigation system that was often used in this region. This is also fascinating for those interested in agricultural history and especially for those who appreciate unusual flora.

    Hiking

    East of Achel lies the Warande nature reserve. This exceptionally diverse walking forest has been open to hikers since 1988. The Warande forest covers approximately 43 hectares and, in addition to poplars, primarily houses relatively young plantations of wild cherry, common ash, common oak, winter oak, sycamore maple, beech, black alder, and birch. A few meadows have been preserved as they were in the past.
