Bumblebee search in the Maasloop valley, Herenthout

Join us on a bumblebee trip – discover the hidden world of our furry heroes! Let yourself be surprised by the wonderful world of bumblebees during this fascinating nature walk in collaboration with Aculea. These gentle buzzers are not only charming but also indispensable to our nature. During this trip, you will discover why. Our experienced guides will take you along flowery paths in the vicinity of VOC-Neteland, where bumblebees are busy at work. You will learn how a bumblebee colony is formed, how their life cycle works, and why they play such a crucial role in pollinating plants. Along the way, we will dive into the social life of bumblebees: from queen to worker, from nest to nectar. You will get tips on how to make your garden attractive to these useful insects and learn which flowers and shrubs they prefer to visit. This walk is suitable for young and old and combines nature experience with surprising facts. Don't expect a dry lesson, but a sensory experience full of wonder, stories, and field observations. Join us, let yourself be amazed, and become a bumblebee ambassador. Because those who get to know them will never look at a flower the same way again. If you have a magnifying glass or binoculars, be sure to bring them.
