    The large sandy plain of the Lommel Sahara resembles a miniature desert. But there are also clear blue lakes, heather strips and fragrant coniferous and deciduous forests. Here you walk past cool play elements, the land art artworks by Will Beckers, the pedestrian bridge and the famous watchtower

      The Lommelse Sahara is a real nature experience. In the middle of heathland, a desert-like sandy landscape opens up here on a few square kilometers. With the bike you sometimes have to try not to get stuck.

      The modern observation tower offers a great overview of the Sahara and the lakes.
