Verloren Bos Castle

Highlight • Castle

The Castle is a villa built in 1899 by industrialist Gonzales Cock, where you can still experience some of the grandeur of the past here and there: the beautiful mosaic in the entrance hall of the castle, the wooden floor - decorated with beautiful motifs - or the authentic cellar vaults, to name just a few elements.

Verloren Bos, Lokeren

Highlight • Forest

The park Verloren Bos is a public park with many possibilities. It is a park in the middle of nature between city and countryside! It is an urban forest where young and old know how to find each other in fascinating adventures.

During the Night of the Bat (August 2023), a new ice cellar was inaugurated in Lokeren, specially designed so that animals can hibernate in it. The ice cellar at Kasteel Verloren Bos is about 120 years old and was previously used as a storage place for drinks, food and medicines.

Wooden Pergola in Park van Lokeren

Highlight • Structure

For a long time, an idyllic stone pergola stood here. In 2021, it was in such a state of disrepair that it had to be demolished for safety reasons. It caused heartache for many Lokeren residents, because it was a favorite location for wedding and communion photos.
A few months later, it was replaced by a wooden one.
The balustrades, which have yet to be installed, refer to the view of the nearby castle that has been in use for years by the Center for Youth Tourism (CJT)

Every year, a pair of storks nests on a nesting pole in the heart of the Buylaers nature reserve in Lokeren. The non-profit organization Durme wants everyone to be able to enjoy this natural spectacle.
The fixed binoculars are mounted on a pole and have a magnification of 20.

Little Free Library Lokeren

Highlight • Structure

In the middle of the green of Lokeren I discovered this charming little book house. A place where hikers can take or leave a book, and where the love for stories is palpable. So beautiful how nature and culture come together here: take a break, browse through a book, and continue walking with new inspiration. Small encounters like this make a trip really special!

Climb in Park ter Beuken

Highlight • Climb

The ter Beuken city park originally started as a landscaped garden around Villa ter Beuken. Every two years, it is transformed into a Temporary Centre for Spatial Art. Since 1981, the city, in collaboration with the Municipal Commission for Artistic Heritage, has been organizing open-air exhibitions there. And... yes, there are a few level differences in the park, which make the park extra attractive for both walkers and mountain bikers. Source: lokeren.be
