This 50 ha forest is owned by Natuurpunt and is managed by the regional department Natuurpunt De Torenvalk vzw.
It was once part of the Bulskampveld, which was still 10,000 (!) ha in the mid-17th century.
The soil in this nature reserve is very diverse: there are both poor dry sandy soils and nutrient-rich wet clay soils. As a result, the flora and fauna of the area are also very diverse. On the drier sandy soils we find coniferous forests, but also oak and birch forests, with ferns and blackberries in the undergrowth. Along the paths you will also find typical plants of the heath. Heather forms purple spots in August, with the small yellow flowers of tormentil in between.
