The Lintbos is a young forest tucked away in the Maalbeek Valley, with its mills and prestigious farmsteads. It used to be part of the Grimbergen airfield and was not planted until 2001. It may be young, but it’s already teeming with life, including birds of prey and many regular visitors such as oystercatchers, partridges, quails, and tree pipits. You might even spot a skylark at the forest edges. This walk follows mostly soft forest trails.
