AquaScope Virelles is a nature reserve in Virelles, Belgium, known for its rich biodiversity and educational programs. The center is also an excellent place for birdwatching, both for groups and individuals, and offers unique experiences such as a night in a hut by the water or a silent excursion at dawn on the lake. AquaScope Virelles is a gateway to the new National Park Entre Sambre Et Meuse and aims to raise awareness of nature and environmental protection.
The AquaScope has a small restaurant and is therefore the ideal place before or after a walk in the area.

Hiking

The AquaScope Virelles is located directly at the lake and invites you into direct contact with the protected fauna and flora thanks to different viewpoints and boardwalks along the water. Temporary exhibitions on the biotope, a water play area and of course the restaurant combine to make the AquaScope an ideal excursion location for families.
