The forests in this area consist of a healthy mix of coniferous and deciduous trees. There is a wide range of different flora and fauna to see. There are dense areas of forest, but also open plains with dune sand on which beautiful heather plants grow that turn completely purple at the right time of year. A fantastic sight. This route is easy to reach from Putsebaan 30 in Huijbergen. At the height of 40+ Camping/Chaletpark De Staartse Duinen ( www.staartseduinen.nl ). Here you can park your car and then continue on foot. When you walk past the campsite it quickly becomes clear that it is located right next to the forest in a unique location. For example, the hiking trails ''Vos'' and ''Ree'' are very close and easy to connect to. Mountain biking is also ideal here. There are special trails (Single Tracks) for the sporty cyclist.

The fort is still a military domain, so unfortunately it is not accessible. It was used as an army training ground until the recent past. Recently it has been completely abandoned and bats find their home there.

You always see them flying here. History: At this location you will become acquainted with the cradle of the Belgian Artillery. The interpretation and expertise center for artillery GUNFIRE is located on the site of the oldest Belgian firing field. Large, modern hangars house a wide range of field, anti-aircraft and trench artillery in service with the Belgian Army since 1830. The patrimony of a number of disbanded units is kept and displayed there. Light aircraft (the former artillery observation from the air) and several armored vehicles are also presented in a didactic way.

The area consists of sand drifts and dunes and offers a beautiful landscape for walkers.

Bring enough water and food: the area is large and there are few places where you can buy something, so make sure you have enough water and food with you. Be careful with the sun: the area is mostly exposed, so make sure you have plenty of sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses with you.

The fortress was built in 1909-1912. The unreinforced concrete buildings stand on a triangular fortress island. It is a fortress of the second order with attached lapel caponiers. The access bridge and the traditore battery behind it are clearly visible and have plasterwork with blocks on the corners. During the First World War, there was no fighting at the fortress of Brasschaat. After 1918, the armament was modernized and the fortress building adapted for gas attacks. The western fortress moat has been part of the Antitankgracht since 1939. In the late 1970s, the Belgian army tried to blow up the fortress. This resulted in the destruction of the left wing of the fort.
