Tips
The Kloosterbos is a nature reserve in the north of East Flanders and is divided between Zelzate and Wachtebeke. It is, just like the Heidebos and the Stropersbos, one of the last remnants of what was once an extensive forest and heathland area from Maldegem to Stekene. Most of the trees in the current forest have been planted in the last 200 years, before that it was mainly heathland, as can be clearly seen on the Ferraris map. A number of zones in the forest have been set up as play forests. The forest has had the FSC label since June 2010.
