Wooden Boardwalk in Grenspark Kalmthoutse Heide

Kalmthoutse Heath Nature Reserve

Highlight • Forest

The Kalmthoutse Heide is truly one of the oldest and largest nature reserves in Flanders. It is actually a unique part of the large heathland landscape that used to be found throughout Europe. Local Antwerp residents like to call it their "backyard" and the place has become super popular with the general public in recent years. If you go there, you can see all kinds of rare animals and plants that you don't often encounter. Truly a hidden gem in the Kempen! And if you are a bit adventurous, you should definitely climb to the observation tower to enjoy the amazing view over the vast landscape.

Sandy heathland in Grenspark Kalmthoutse Heide

Highlight • Natural

The Kalmthoutse Heide covers an enormous area, consisting of many different forests, heaths and plains. You can walk endlessly and get lost. There are no fewer than 26 walking routes, several cycling routes and bridleways, all of which are very different. From sliding through wet, swamp-like landscapes, to large sandy expanses where you have to walk through the deep, soft sand, which makes a hike much harder. Parking is always free and can be found all around the area

Anti-tank Ditch and Bunkers in Ertbrand Forest

Highlight (Segment) • Historical Site

The Antitankgracht is a former defense line around Antwerp and runs from the Albert Canal in Oelegem to the Scheldt in Berendrecht. In 1940, in six months' time, the entire 33 km route had been excavated. Today, its function has shifted from military defense ditch to 'defender of nature and landscape', a unique landscape element, along which you can cycle and walk almost endlessly. Moreover, as a large nature connection area, the Antitankgracht also contributes to the migration of animals and plants
