    In summer, the huge ferns in the Schmale Hecke - Geizbusch area convey a primeval character, through which a narrow, great nature path leads and makes a hike an unforgettable experience.

      The Geitzbusch forms a wooded island amidst the extensive peat bogs of the Fagnard Zone, nestled between the Noir Flohay to the southwest and the Bongards to the northeast. To the southeast lies the Fagne des Deux-Séries. The Walloon-speaking inhabitants of Sourbrodt and Robertville once referred to this wooded area as the "Long Hedge." However, the origin of the name element "Geitz" remains unclear.

        Even today you can clearly see the burn marks on the dead trees. The name "Ghost Forest" is absolutely justified. In foggy conditions, these trees can be quite frightening.
