    One of many great views in the High Fens.

      The moorland around Botrange is part of the High Fens, Belgium's largest raised bog area. It is characterized by wide, open raised bogs, sphagnum moss, heather, and downy birch trees, and provides habitat for rare animals such as moor frogs and certain bird species. This delicate landscape offers a unique nature experience, shaped by abundant water, a cool climate, and an often misty, mystical atmosphere. Educational trails like "Colors of the Fens" at the Botrange Nature Park Centre (not to be confused with Signal de Botrange) vividly illustrate the flora and fauna for visitors and offer an ideal introduction to the unique ecology of the raised bog.
