Icon description route Description

Beautiful walk in and around Merksplas Colony

What is there to see?

Around the buildings, there is a complete justice village with various authentic warden houses that have recently been beautifully renovated, a Great Farm with a visitor center where one can discover the history of the colony, a school, and a chapel. The five most important buildings are protected as monuments. The protected domain covers about 600 hectares and is surrounded by a moat.

The domain is characterized by a grid pattern of avenues, interspersed with fields, meadows, forests, and clay pits. In recent years, Merksplas Colony has won many awards in the field of tourism. It has therefore become a popular destination for cycling, mountain biking, or walking through the beautiful avenues.
