Hiking
The floodable and swampy hay meadows and meadows are a true bird paradise. That is why the Handzaamvallei is protected as a European Bird Directive area. This valley is also worth a visit in terms of plants!
In addition to birds, the typical plants of this valley area are very dependent on this water, especially the large foxtail (early flowering grass that turns the fields from creamy white to purple in May and June).
