Hiking

The Gentbos in Merelbeke, with its 28 hectares, is the ideal base for those who want to take a walk in the woods near Ghent.

Hiking

A nice forest for a walk but not on Sundays. It's very crowded when the weather is good.

Hiking

A beautiful forest indeed, but not to do when it has rained a lot, as you also write 😉, you could slip and end up in the mud.
