The Lintbos is a forest in Grimbergen that was planted from March 2001. The area was owned by the federal government until 1989, but is now owned by the municipality of Grimbergen, which gave it a long lease to the Agency for Nature and Forests (ANB). It used to be part of Grimbergen Airport. It covers 70 ha of which 55 ha is forested with about 150 000 native trees and shrubs. Two sight axes have been kept free, one from the Lintkasteel in the north to the center of Grimbergen (with a view of the Basilica), and one from the airport to the church of Beigem.

Kingfisher Totem

Highlight • Monument

Not far from the Lintbos parking lot stands a wooden sculpture of a kingfisher. The kingfisher is a cherished neighbor of Grimbergen.
The "Cherish Neighbors" project is an initiative of the province of Flemish Brabant, in collaboration with the Brabantse Kouters Regional Landscape and the municipality, aimed at protecting local biodiversity. The goal is to "cherish" specific animal and plant species native to the municipality and protect their habitats from fragmentation.
