Enjoy the view of the Mark Valley and the Dender Valley during this hike along the slopes of the Bosberg, a foothill of the Flemish Ardennes and a well-known climb featured in many spring classics. At 107 meters high, this hill is one of the highest points in the Pajottenland. You’ll walk past the De Helix nature education center in Geraardsbergen and St. Paul’s Chapel in Pajottegem. The Kluysbos may not be large, but it’s one of the most beautiful spring forests in the region.
