The ‘Hallerbos’, also known as the blue forest, is one of the 3 extensive forest areas in the Brussels capital area. It is an ancient forest with a mix of young and older trees. The giant Sequoia trees are pretty impressive as well as the beautiful purple carpet of bluebells, which bloom around mid-April. Crossing the forests on a mix of gravel and singletrack dirt roads make up for a visit worth it!
