Descrizione

This 3.5 km trail takes you on a journey through time and nature. The Vrieselhof estate, once the summer residence of Antwerp's elite, now offers a tranquil escape. Wander through the enchanting forests, stroll along the banks of the babbling brook, and admire the diverse flora and fauna. Keep an eye out for the rare yellow scorpion moss, a unique feature of this area. The fort of Oelegem, a historical masterpiece, adds another dimension to your hike. This 19th-century fortress, part of the Antwerp Fortress Belt, offers a glimpse into the region's military past. Although the fort is primarily a bat sanctuary and not open to the public, you can still appreciate its imposing architecture from the outside.
