Wooden Boardwalk in Grenspark Kalmthoutse Heide

Highlight • Cycleway

Good alternative for the busy N111. This gravel path connects the entrance of the Kalmthoutse Heide (Heath of Kalmthout) to the Dodendraad monument.

De Stapper lookout tower has four floors and on each floor there are openings through which you can take a look at the surroundings. Sometimes it even seems as if a painting with a beautiful heather landscape hangs against the stone wall, but you look 'live' at the fairytale beautiful environment.

The Kalmthoutse Heide is truly one of the oldest and largest nature reserves in Flanders. It is actually a unique part of the large heathland landscape that used to be found throughout Europe. Local Antwerp residents like to call it their "backyard" and the place has become super popular with the general public in recent years. If you go there, you can see all kinds of rare animals and plants that you don't often encounter. Truly a hidden gem in the Kempen! And if you are a bit adventurous, you should definitely climb to the observation tower to enjoy the amazing view over the vast landscape.

The Kalmthoutse Heide covers an enormous area, consisting of many different forests, heaths and plains. You can walk endlessly and get lost. There are no fewer than 26 walking routes, several cycling routes and bridleways, all of which are very different. From sliding through wet, swamp-like landscapes, to large sandy expanses where you have to walk through the deep, soft sand, which makes a hike much harder. Parking is always free and can be found all around the area

Molen Johanna (Huijbergen)

Highlight • Monument

The building permit granted for the Johanna also mentioned its use as an oil mill and the mill may have been equipped as such. There was also a sawing mill in the Johanna.
During the Second World War the mill was used to grind grain and generate electricity.
In the 1960s the mill fell into disrepair. It was sold to the municipality of Huijbergen in 1966, which immediately had it restored. The mill was made ready for grinding in the years 1968/1969. Nowadays, volunteer millers keep the mill running regularly.
