Tips

August 21, 2020

Dunes in the Kempen? Anyway. Land dunes are sandy hills that were created after the last ice age, by blowing sand from the rivers. This specific landscape of high, dry land dunes and low, wet stream valleys is a testimony to a distant past and still determines the structure of the landscape of Balen, Geel, Meerhout and Mol. The land dunes provide beautiful landscapes with a very special flora and fauna. Summer oaks and flying pines determine the picture. Typical inhabitants of the dunes are digging wasps, sand bees and sand-race beetles. On the dry sand ridges you walk through extensive coniferous forests, beautiful heather areas and sweeping sand drifts.

Nowadays you can't just play in all the woods. In a few places in Geel, however, you can organize a forest game or let your children romp around without any worries: at the Kapucienenberg in Bel, on the grounds of the De Volmolen and Malpertuus campsite in Bel, at a zone at the Kruiskwacht in Bel, at the Kalvarieberg in Oosterlo and at Houterveld in Larum.
