Today, I was riding my bike and saw beautiful flowers blooming everywhere. On such a warm and sunny day, I felt even more motivated to fully enjoy the beauty of the season. I’m looking for more of these hidden gems—places where I can take lovely photos, go for walks, and ride my bike during these months. Somewhere like Hallerbos. If you’ve taken any beautiful photos, feel free to share them too. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.

  1. These flowers are great and can be observed in many forests. best known is “Hallerbos” but this has become overcrowded. There are other forest where you can see these. Other options are:

    1. Helleketelbos – Poperinge
    2. [Rodeberg / Hellegatbos](https://www.libelle.be/wandelroutes/wandelroute-westouter/) – Westouter
    3. [Kemmelberg](https://www.libelle.be/wandelroutes/west-vlaanderen-hyacintenwandeling-kemmel-dranouter/) – Kemmel
    4. Koppenbergbos – Oudenaarde / Maarkedal
    5. [Kluisbos](https://www.libelle.be/wandelroutes/wandelroute-kluisbos-en-kluisbergen/) – Kluisbergen
    6. Hotond-Scherpenberg – Ronse
    7. Muziekbos – Ronse
    8. [Bos Ter Rijst](https://www.libelle.be/wandelroutes/vlaams-brabant-kasteeldomeinwandeling-pepingen-ter-rijst/) – Maarkedal
    9. [Brakelbos](https://www.libelle.be/wandelroutes/oost-vlaanderen-brakelbos-taalgrens/) – Brakel
    10. [Bosberg / Raspaillebos](https://www.libelle.be/wandelroutes/wandelroute-helix-bosberg/) – Geraardsbergen
    11. Neigembos – Ninove
    12. Kravaalbos – Meldert

    Besides these, another option for wild flowers in spring is the High Fens, where there are wild daffodils in huge numbers in some places (https://www.ostbelgien.eu/en/what-to-do/discover/typical-east-belgium/spring-the-time-of-awakening). They advertise their guided tours, but you can just as easily see them on your own. This is a nice hike just over the Belgian border in Germany: https://www.eifel.info/en/hiking/all-hiking-trails/a-narzissenroute.

    EDIT: maybe Haspengouw for the fruit tree blossoms? I hear that draws in tourists as well, but I have never been there.

  2. Niet ver van Kluisbos is ook nog Tiegembos. Niet zo groot wel leuk om te wandelen. Groetjes van op de voet van de Kluis

  3. I just like to take a stroll down my local woods which I wont name. Lots of galanthus in the winter months, like mats of them, no narcis sadly, both if which are related to alliums btw, didnt know that until recently. In springs there’s tons of these blue flowers you see in the pic in some places, along with smaller white and golden flowers
