Natuurwandeling Vogelzang, then and now

Let yourself be surprised by the landscape of 1001 ponds. Discover the varied nature reserve de Wijers and go out with experienced guides from Toerisme Zonhoven. Every month we explore a different piece of the pond area and look at nature through a different lens. The walks are 4 to 6 km long and last a maximum of two hours. Participation is free, registration is mandatory via www.zonhoven.be/themawandelingen. Birdsong, past and present Tuesday, December 8th and Sunday, December 13th, 2026   Baron Claude de Ville-and-Fagne de Vogelsanck was a nature manager pur sang. One of his ancestors became blind at the age of twenty by a shot from poachers, but still laid the foundation for the tree nursery, the gardens, and the arboretum at the castle. That heritage still influences the surrounding forests today. So there is a lot to discover here! Departure at 2 PM in De Drij Dreven just past the last house in Zonhoven.
