Beautiful walking area, not greasy even after heavy rain (some places were greasy, but easy to avoid).

The herb garden is located at the rear of the castle, opposite the entrance to the visitor center. It is accessible via the stairs or the ramp next to the restrooms. This unique herb garden is open to the public from sunrise to sunset. (Province of West Flanders)

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.

This beautiful piece of nature reserve can be found in the provincial domain of Bulskampveld. The area reflects the historical landscape of the Brugse Zandstreek. You will mainly find heathland, a fen, grasslands and very beautiful avenues here and to connect everything. Walk along the boardwalks that lead you along the large fen, where dragonflies and damselflies dance above the water surface. Along the way you can encounter Galloway cattle that graze the area, and with a bit of luck you will spot a viviparous lizard, black woodpecker or tree pipit. The area is freely accessible all year round via the hiking trails. Boots or sturdy shoes are recommended, especially in wet weather. Let yourself be surprised by the natural beauty and tranquility of Heideveld-Bornebeek. (Brugse Ommeland)

As #Els wrote earlier: the vast majority of the forest is still quite young. It is therefore noticeable that there are still many young trees and 'lots' of planting have been marked. Already a charming forest, but it promises that it will only become more beautiful and valuable in the coming decades. Tip: With the Baliekouter in Wakken just a stone's throw away, you can make a beautiful loop between two beautiful pieces of nature.

Absolutely beautiful area of 44 hectares of forest, with three ponds with remarkable names, of which the largest, the castle pond, is called "'t Zeetje". In the second pond, Ardoyevijver, there is a headland/peninsula with a bench where the view is beautiful and it is quiet to sit. The third pond and surroundings are managed as a nature reserve. On the edge of it there is a birdwatching hut.

You will find around 400 species here. When the herb garden at the castle was created, the aim was to create the most complete collection of herbs possible, for various uses. The herbs are grouped: Medicinal herbs The largest group in the herb garden, with traditionally known medicinal plants and more recently used species. The native species are listed according to their growing location. For example, you will find the marsh and water plants in or around the pond. Culinary herbs Discover commonly used and lesser-known species, in addition to food crops such as artichoke and asparagus. Industrial crops Less numerous. Often on larger plots, to give a better impression of the former cultivation method. The fibre plants, oil plants and dye plants are grouped as much as possible. Please note that some (medicinal) herbs are poisonous! This is one of the reasons why you are not allowed to pick any plants.
