The Hallerbos is the most important and most extensive forested area between the Zenne and Zoniën. The forest is a favorite among visitors thanks to the beautiful purple carpet of wild hyacinths, which bloom around mid-April. The varied terrain offers wonderful hiking opportunities and makes a visit to this forest more than worth your while. The Roebuck Trail is a challenging hike that takes you through three of the four valleys in the Hallerbos.
