Enjoy a drink with a beautiful view

The new fishing season at the Begijnenvijvers starts on 29 March. Everything is now in tip-top condition, ideal time to go (again).

Beautiful art made from natural materials.

The 'Begijnenvijvers' lie on the border of Hechtel and Peer, and are part of the municipal forest area Resterheide, currently part of "Bosland." Part of this unique nature reserve is designated for passive recreation, while another part is a valuable and protected nature and breeding ground. The sandy soil slopes down on one side towards the Scheldt basin via the Grote Nete, and on the other side towards the Meuse basin via the Bollissenbeek and the Dommel. The three stream valleys of the Dommel, the Nete, and the Zwarte Beek have traditionally been relatively inaccessible. All three have retained their original character to a greater or lesser extent. This results in a great deal of diversity and a wide range of plants and animals.

Will Beckers is somewhat of Bosland's 'house artist'. You can find his works in Hechtel-Eksel, Pelt and Lommel. Next year (2023) he will create a total experience artwork in Lommel that will function as a gateway to Bosland in the Sahara nature reserve. Will Beckers looks at Bosland with an artist's eye. This provides interesting insights. A look that also reveals a lot of passion.

People with reduced mobility can reach the lower platform of the tower via an inclined plane. (Municipality of Lommel)

This 30-meter-high observation tower has three platforms that offer you a wide view of the surroundings.

Beautiful nature reserve and very special walking area! Well worth a visit
