Here around the war memorial to the plane crash in 1943 are Averbode forest and heath with old beech and oak forests, wet and dry meadows, moors and ponds. Only a few reminders of the crash, nature has recaptured the area.
Today, the forest and heath are retreats for rare animal and plant species. If you are very quiet and do your rounds early, you might see a great egret fishing between prickly broom or cinquefoil in the moor. Or you might spot a Phegea Butterfly, a Blue-winged Grasshopper, or the rare Marsh Grasshopper.
