The Stropersbos is spread over the municipalities of Stekene and Sint-Gillis-Waas and is one of the largest forest complexes in East Flanders. You can explore the forest with three walking routes: the green walking loop, the red walking loop and the Laarzenpad (natuurenbos.be/sites/default/files/stropersbos_kaart_0.pdf).

The Stropersbos is an unmissable natural gem with its stately avenues, valuable alder swamp forests, open spaces with heather and its large grazers! Together with the adjacent green areas, the Stropersbos forms one of the largest forest and nature complexes in East Flanders.
