surprisingly beautiful piece of forest - a bit like a fairytale in the autumn colours

The (historical) Scheepsput can be found in the beautiful green Sint-Pietersveld. You would hardly believe it, but this well was dug in the mid-19th century to build a three-master. The large sailing ship served as a training ground for the sailors of a reform school in the area (now Community Institution De Zande). The pond was given the name 'Het Schip', but was transformed by the local population into the Scheepsput.

The Hooggoed is a forest area of 120 hectares located near the Bulskampveld in Aalter. The domain forest is managed by the Agency for Nature and Forests and consists of beech, pedunculate oak, birch, Scots pine and larch. The Hooggoed is located on a sandy bottom and is therefore also called the Egypt field. Historically, however, the name Hooggoed refers to two separate areas north and south of the current forest. During the 18th century, they were both owned by a different Jesuit monastery. The fathers intensively forested the Aalter heath: first with deciduous wood, then with coniferous wood. The Hooggoedbos is divided into rabatten or canals (elongated or round mounds surrounded by ditches). The Hooggoed is home to red squirrels, weasels, black woodpeckers, buzzards, sparrowhawks, kestrels, long-eared owls, nuthatches and tree creepers, among others. Het Hooggoed is freely accessible on the avenues and paths that cross the area.
