Visbeek Wetlands

Highlight • Natural

Nice for walking, but very wet in autumn/winter. Waterproof footwear is essential! It's less challenging in summer.

Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Here you can sit on the benches inside or outside the hut. It's an ideal spot to take a break or find shelter from a sudden rain shower.

Visbeek Valley

Highlight • Forest

The Visbeek valley is an enormously valuable and extremely varied nature reserve. Swamp forests, spring-rich meadows, dry and wet heathland,... You will find it all here! The Visbeek is the lifeblood of this typical Kempen stream valley. It goes without saying that it is teeming with life. In this area you will find dozens of special plants. In addition, there are no fewer than thirty species of dragonflies and various rare butterflies. Many bird species find their home in the valley. However, the pearl of this area is still the Adder. This species is only found in one other place in Flanders. In order to give this endangered species the best possible chance, Natuurpunt Lille is working with the municipality of Lille on the 'Adder Plan'. (Municipality of Lille)

Heksenboom Monument

Highlight • Monument

Years ago, the Witches' Tree stood here, a natural landmark at a crucial intersection. This Scots pine was felled in 1984, but a memorial was erected in 1990. All sorts of stories were attributed to the tree, including "true witch tales."
