Enjoying the Sonian Forest is easy from the various access gates. These access gates are located on the edge of the forest, are easily accessible and are therefore the ideal starting point to explore the forest. There are eight access gates.

The Sonian Forest, also known as the Zoniënwoud, is a large forest area centrally located in Belgium, southeast of Brussels. It covers approximately 4,421 hectares and is best known for its old beech trees, some of which are over 200 years old. The forest has a rich history dating back to the Iron Age and has had various functions over the centuries, such as providing firewood and timber for the construction of houses and ships, and as a backdrop for hunting scenes. The current forest landscape with deciduous trees has its origins in the Austrian period (1714-1795).

The path which crosses the Solvay estate and which passes near the Château de La Hulpe is in good condition and has only a few holes filled with water... but easily avoidable.

Always beautiful, spacious and varied forest

A discovery. I was there on a wet windy November day. Definitely want to do this in the other seasons as well

The Sonian Forest is an exceptional, vulnerable and ancient forest that is also recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The forest extends across the three Belgian regions and is one of the best-known and most visited green spaces in the region.

Very quiet and beautiful for driving and walking.
