    Hiking

    The Helix is interesting for many different reasons. The Helix is a Flemish Knowledge and Training Centre for Nature and Environment and stimulates and supports education and training on the environment, nature and sustainable development. The centre develops innovative educational products and methods for various target groups. (visitgeraardsbergen.be/de-helix)
    You can also easily find a parking space if you want to walk in the area and also picnic areas.

    Hiking

    Very worthwhile to take a walk around the garden. Archimedes' screw, limestone grasslands, bee hotel, ... Nice to discover.
    The name 'The Helix' refers to the structure of the DNA, the carrier of the hereditary information in all living beings. The symbol of the center is therefore the blue spiral or helix that you see at the parking lot.
