Aalst City Park, also known as Park Schepen De Wolf, is a 15-hectare green oasis southeast of the city center. The park was created between 1915 and 1916 by landscape architect Louis-Julien Breydel, under the direction of Alderman Désiré De Wolf, to provide employment for residents during the First World War. You'll find charming water features such as the Balloon Pond and Mirror Pond, walking paths, playgrounds, and historic buildings like the garden, card, and milk houses. Since 1977, the park has been a protected cultural-historical landscape and offers a perfect blend of nature, history, and relaxation.

Where once one of Meldert's most important quarries lay, now the clear water of a large pond sparkles. At first this was a marshland, but in 1962 a stream was dammed and the quarry filled up.

The Stadspark van Aalst, also known as the Groot Park or Park Schepen de Wolf, is a beautiful park located southeast of the city center of Aalst. The park covers an area of approximately 15 hectares. The history of the park begins in the period around the First World War. In 1910-1911, the Osbroek was purchased by alderman of finance Moyersoen for public use. Under the policy of alderman of public works Désiré De Wolf, the park was laid out between 1915 and 1916 by landscape architect Louis-Julien Breydel. The park was specially designed to provide work for the residents of Aalst and to remove them from the war conditions. The park consists of several water features, including the Ballonvijver and the Spiegelvijver, surrounded by lawns and groups of tall trees. There are also several walking paths and playgrounds, and some of the original structures, such as the garden, card and milk house, are still present. The park has also been a protected cultural-historical landscape since 1977.

Today Komoot was asked to change the name of this Highlight to Hennenput.

The Henneput, the largest water feature, is an attraction for almost all animals, a spawning ground for toads and frogs in the spring, a moment of relaxation for many hikers. (Nature point)

Beautiful water lilies, dragonflies, but dirty brownish water

The large pond in the Kravaalbos forest is a remnant of a historic quarry. As early as the 12th century, a closed farmstead, once used for stone quarrying, stood on the site of Hof te Putte. Hof te Putte and Putstraat clearly refer to the quarries. The forest also owes its name to them. Kravaal comes from "car" and "vaal," meaning "stone" and "valley." (Kravaalbos Hiking Brochure)
