Description
Gerhagen forms the green lung of Tessenderlo and lies at the crossroads of Limburg, Flemish Brabant and Antwerp. Together with the Merodebossen, it forms one of the largest forest areas. Gerhagen was the very first in Flanders to receive the quality label "Recognized Area of Silence.
On the Stiltepad you experience the peace and quiet of nature to the fullest. Pick up a free silence map and silence backpack at the Forest Museum to enjoy it to the fullest. All you hear are chirping birds, rustling trees and rustling sounds. Be sure to stop at the reverie bench, a work of art by Raphaël Timmermans, and let your thoughts wander.
