Description
Beautiful rural junction route that goes through the stunning nature area of Lovenhoek. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a leash!
Lovenhoek is a nature reserve of more than 145 hectares with a surprising variety of habitats for plants and animals. The hamlet of Lovenhoek was centrally located, where several farms stood until the beginning of the last century. On the dry sandy soils around were fields with hedgerows and extensive heathlands. Aside from some remnants, the entire heath landscape has been transformed into coniferous forests. In the wetter areas of the region, you will find valuable deciduous forests.

Wednesday, February 12, 2025 by Luc SpoeldersDefinitely beautiful (by Flemish standards of course), also some benches along the way to rest. Unfortunately a whole part of the trail is currently interrupted because Natuurpunt has closed a path (at point 81 you can no longer go right to point 17, you have to follow the path straight on;02/2025). Also little parking space at the beginning of the route (Putakkerstraat).
