The Hondsbossen is a remnant of the early medieval Waverwoud that stretched between Nete and Dijle. It consisted of peat bogs, wooded and open, moorland areas. Fortunately, what remains of the forest still breathes the magic of yesteryear.

The Hondsbossen are a remnant of the early medieval Waverwoud that stretched between Nete and Dijle. It consisted of peat, wooded and open, heathland areas. What remains of the forest now, fortunately still breathes the magic of yesteryear.
