's Herenbos

For centuries 's Herenbos was the playground for noble families. Today, a large part of the forest is protected because of its exceptional natural values. Together with the adjacent Wolfschot and Domein de Renesse, there are 150 hectares of valuable nature here that you can explore to your heart's content via good hiking trails.

Hikers are welcome at some idyllic beautiful spots in the forest, via the marked walks. If you want to explore the forest further, it is necessary that you do so under the expert guidance of a guide. Dogs are welcome here, but must be kept on a leash so as not to disturb nature.'s Herenbos has a large variety of (old) trees: summer oak, beech, ash, Scots pine, black alder, birch. Rowan, spork and hazel characterize the shrub layer. Large parts of the forest develop spontaneously without much human intervention. Natural processes such as windfall, death due to old age or disease, game damage, spontaneous germination and natural competition determine how the forest grows and flourishes.

Very nice part of the reserve.
Please note, in wet weather, good shoes/boots and sufficient Know spray against the mosquitoes.
