    The Bois de la Vecquée, a forest near Namur in Belgium, is home not only to a wide variety of trees and plants, but also to historic and natural sites, such as Fort de Malonne, a 19th-century fortress that serves today a refuge for bats, and some craters left by bombing during the world wars. You can also admire the Meuse valley and the citadel of Namur from certain viewpoints in the forest. The Bois de la Vecquée is a vestige of the ancient Marlagne forest, which once covered a vast area between Namur and Sart-Saint-Laurent. It is a site of great biological interest which is part of the Natura 2000 network of protected areas in Europe.

      The Vecquée woods are very pretty: it's so lovely to walk there...
