    A parking lot (with benches of course) and a number of information boards with entry points for walks. But why so many and varied names? Well, strictly speaking, Stamprooierbroek is located a little further north from here, just above the Grootbroek forest reserve and just below the Dutch border. To the left of Stamprooierbroek you will find De Luysen. Here, at the Woutershof, we are just at the border of 't Hasselterbroek and you will also find an information board about it. It is west of where we are standing here. And to the east we then walk towards De Zig. Complex? Not if you know that Stamprooierbroek and Hasselterbroek border each other and, until the end of the nineteenth century, a large swampy area called Urlobroek. Hold on tight: the Abeek was then up to a kilometer wide in some places. People have started to drain the swamps. This happened in Belgium by the Banque Générale pour favoriser l'Agriculture et les Travaux publics, which acquired the marshes in 1865. Immediately after the first exploitations, lawyer Ch. Wauters here in 1884 the nearby Woutershof. And today all of this, together with various areas in the Abeek valley, is part of what we know as Grenspark Kempen~Broek.
