This is one of the many entrances to Gerhagen but not the main entrance, for that you best park near the sand hill and the forest museum. This parking is ideal for those who want to explore the western part of Gerhagen and/or the eastern part of Averbode Vennen en Heide that is just across the Turnhoutsebaan. You are also not very far from Achterheide here which is a bit further south.
