Tips

March 6, 2024

Opposite the wet Walenbos lies the high-altitude and dry Troostembergbos with sometimes steep climbs. It was long the domain of the noble De Troostemberg family and is full of old beech trees. There is a little bit of everything in a relatively small area besides the hiking trails. There is a bivouac zone, a play zone, a climbing area with rope, a play meadow, an off-leash dog zone, an experience walk and much more. From one of the avenues you also have a beautiful frontal view of Kleerbeek Castle. At the foot of the hill where the forest is located is a fairly busy lane that many cyclists know well, the Kasteeldreef. At the beginning of that lane (from the road to Aarschot) there is a parking lot for hikers in the Troostembergbos (via a signposted short path). You can easily combine the Walenbos and Troostembergbos on walks, both are actually more or less separated by the paved road to Aarschot (where the Troostembergbos is located to the west of it). It can sometimes be quite busy here and there are often walking clubs during the weekend.

You feel small because of the giant trees...
