View of the beautiful countryside...

The badger path that runs along the former railway line provides you with access to this lookout tower. But what is he looking forward to? You will mainly see part of the De Herkwinning nature reserve and stream area, which you can read more about here: natuurenbos.be/herkwinning

The beautifully restored, historically important Hoeve Herkwinning is also nearby. And at the entrance to the viewing platform, benches await you and - in addition to the information board about what you see on the platform - you will find two additional information boards, specifically about Railway 23 and the Mombeek Valley.

Thanks to various valuable vegetation, hikers will definitely find something to their liking in this nature reserve. But this stream valley is also the perfect place for bird watching. Moreover, from the lookout tower you have a view over a beautiful part of the Herkwinning area. The cross-pollination between natural development and good nature management ensures that this is a diverse and valuable piece of greenery.
