보슈아웃‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

In the 19th and 20th centuries, the Kesselse Heide was a popular location for military exercises. It was used successively by the Belgian army (specifically the Achterbist region), during World War II by German soldiers, and in the post-war period by the Allies. Locals would sometimes "play" with the soldiers as children, participating in exercises such as quickly reassembling a weapon. However, from the early 1950s onward, the fun ended: the start of the Korean War and more frequent exercises led to stricter rules. Perhaps for the best, as the soldiers had access to heavy artillery. The heath contained several gun pits, part of the defense line around Nijlen. The famous "Horseshoe Pit" was one of them. This pit was originally circular and was (possibly) dug during the First World War to wash the soldiers' horses. Later, a small land bridge was added, making the island in the middle accessible. For many locals, it served as a beautiful swimming hole and a place for summer recreation.

Nice story about rivalry between local youth from surrounding villages

Patience and calm are instructive...

Always fun to visit

Winter lighting, quiet walking

During the months of June, July and August, the site is largely closed due to Tomorrowland

It is a beautiful park, with beautiful water features and the Rivierhof castle where you can enjoy a snack and a drink.

A nice large viewing wall with seats. A place that attracts many viewers. A plus point about this viewing wall is that holes have been made at different heights. This way, young and old can enjoy what is happening on the water surface at the same time.
