Tips

Katrien

January 31, 2021

In this area of approximately 7 hectares you will find wet and dry meadows, forest and rugged pieces of nature. In the center is a large pond. There is also an educational zone with a pool where you can get a closer look at aquatic life. Different plants and animals feel at home in these many biotopes.

Here you can spot herons and ducks. In the steep wall of the pond we hope to welcome kingfishers. And in the summer, sheep help manage the pastures. Do not startle these animals and stay on the trails, especially during the breeding period (April – June).
