Wet grasslands, forests, ponds, and fertile fields line your path as you walk past blooming fruit orchards. At Provinciedomein Het Vinne, you’ll walk around Flanders’ largest natural inland lake. There, you’ll come across a large standard-tree orchard with various varieties of apples and pears. The pear tree blossoms are pure white, while the apple blossoms have a pink edge. And that curious hill at the entrance to Het Vinne? That’s a motte, an 11th-century castle mound.
