Definitely worth a visit for those who love peace and quiet and nature. Lots of different flora, and every now and then you'll see a deer hopping by.

The Hornebos was once part of the Bovelingen castle grounds and is now highly recommended. Especially the diversity of the views, which are available for historical and forest management reasons, make it really worthwhile. Some parts also have a fairytale-like feel. Perhaps that is why the municipality of Rukkelingen-Loon launched a fairytale walk for smaller walkers in April this year - with an educational side. They can now go out with the Grondelingers, while Komoters can, for example, do one of the "Hidden Beautiful Hornebos" walks: wandeleninlimburg.be/nl/routes/3378294

I walked through this forest in the winter (partially, a long route), and it has its charms too. I'm curious to see what it offers in other seasons, because it looks beautiful.

I'll definitely do this again in another season and the entire Hornebos trail itself.
