Hiking
Enter the enchanting world of Zoerselbos and discover an impressive diversity of flora and fauna. Within its relatively small 400-hectare area, you'll wander through oak forests and conifers, across grasslands, heathland, and marshy meadows. Various rare plants and 1,800 species of mushrooms and fungi prove that Zoerselbos is more than just a forest. Be inspired by the forest, just as author Hendrick Conscience did for his books.

Hiking
The Zoerselbos forest is largely spread across the municipality of Zoersel and a small section across Zandhoven. Unique to this Kempen nature reserve is the meadow landscape, where the grasslands are bordered by wooded areas. Some of these meadows have developed into impenetrable swamp forest in recent decades. Within a relatively small area, you'll find a wide variety of vegetation types. Ancient oak forests and mature conifers alternate with grasslands and species-rich scrub. Heathland is only present in limited numbers.
