This deciduous forest, one of the few in Droog-Haspengouw, originally belonged to the domain of Bovelingen Castle. The forest is rich in plants, including Slender Primrose and Giant Beetle Orchid. The highest point is about 130 meters above sea level. From there you have a beautiful view over the clay plateau of Haspengouw. There are sunken roads in the forest. The Peterkerebrukensloop originates in the forest, which flows into the Herk. An underground tunnel connected this stream with the castle ponds. In 1980, this forest was purchased by the Agency for Nature and Forests. Then the damp parts were overgrown with poplar and Norway spruce. In 1985 these trees were replaced by more natural vegetation, and in 2002 a further 15 hectares, bordering the forest, were planted with trees.

It is a protected monument. The tumuli were intended for eternity. In 1979 we were legally protected because they are also valuable for our time and for the future. They remind us of the rich culture of almost 2000 years ago. By taking care of it together, the rich past is preserved for generations to come. The hills in front of you were made by man, in the second century. Under such a hill lay the grave of an inhabitant of one of the many Gallo-Roman farms in the area. We call a Gallo-Roman burial mound a tumulus (Latin, plural: tumuli). There have been hundreds of tumuli throughout Haspengouw. Now there are only fifteen left in our province. Gingelom has six, more than any other municipality in South Limburg. You can visit them all.

The Hornebos was once part of the Bovelingen castle grounds and is now highly recommended. Especially the diversity of the views, which are available for historical and forest management reasons, make it really worthwhile. Some parts also have a fairytale-like feel. Perhaps that is why the municipality of Rukkelingen-Loon launched a fairytale walk for smaller walkers in April this year - with an educational side. They can now go out with the Grondelingers, while Komoters can, for example, do one of the "Hidden Beautiful Hornebos" walks: https://www.wandeleninlimburg.be/nl/routes/3378294/
