    Beautiful swamp forest, difficult to capture in photos or describe in words, but definitely worth cycling through.

      This highlight, located near a beautiful pond, is situated in the large nature reserve 'Het Goor - Asbroek'. Het Goor, which with its regular canal pattern and many water features reminds us of the peat extraction in the 18th-19th century, is an ideal location to press the pause button on one of the rare benches and replenish your burnt sugars.
      Historical explanation - what is peat?
      Peat is dried peat that was dug from the marshy peat areas. The extracted peat was laid out to dry and then used as a raw material. The dried product peat was the most important fuel in our region for centuries - from roughly the 11th to the 18th century.
      The nature reserve 'Het Goor-Asbroek' is now a large marsh area. Here you can enjoy one of the exceptional botanical top areas in Flanders for hours while walking or slowly pedaling.
