    Tips

    April 9, 2024

    It is a bit of a mystical place there in Vechmaal. Located along a quiet walking path, you suddenly notice a deep pit, with three entrances to caves, marl caves in fact, shielded with artistic metal plates containing openings in bat profiles, designed by architect Frans Vandueren. No coincidence. Because these caves provide access to the remains of a 90 million year old sea and are particularly suitable as a hibernation site for bats, one of the most important in our region. So rest is requested. This does not mean that you cannot visit them at certain times.
