Tips

The Wolfsputten form a varied nature reserve with ravine forests, calcareous spring streams and rare flora such as wild garlic, orchids and giant horsetail. In this rolling landscape you walk along old sandstone quarries and deeply cut stream valleys that once provided the building materials for churches and town halls in Brussels, Ghent and Leuven. With more than 300 plant species and dozens of birds and mammals, this is one of Flanders' most biodiverse places.

A 90-hectare gem in the Green Belt, just a stone's throw from Brussels. This nature reserve is known for its rich terrain, with beautiful spring flora alternating between dry and marshy areas. Restored and newly constructed boardwalks—a total of approximately 370 meters—guide you comfortably through the valley without damaging the fragile, wetlands.

The highlight of Wolfsputten is undoubtedly the new viewing platform, a popular stop or selfie spot.
