Through sunken paths, tucked away in the rolling hills of the Dijleland, you’ll walk to the Bertembos, the Koeheide nature reserve, and the Eikenbos. In the spring, a white carpet of wood anemones unfolds in the Bertembos. You’ll walk across Bertem’s highest point—92.5 meters high—and when the trees part for a moment, you’ll enjoy beautiful views of the region. Out and about with kids? At the ’t Vossenhol play forest, they can climb, scramble, romp, and swing to their hearts’ content on natural play structures.
