Extensive description Close

Let yourself be enchanted by the Blue Route, a serene hike that takes you through the quiet beauty of the Kolisbos. This route winds mostly through extensive woodlands and offers a perfect mix of scents and colors: fresh pines alternating with the soft tones of deciduous trees. Here you can completely escape the hustle and bustle.

A picturesque landscape
The Kolisbos is crossed by the babbling Kolisloop, which finds its way to the Warmbeek. Along the way, you hike through a harmony of birch-oak woodlands and stately pine groves – a variation that makes every step surprising.

Start your adventure at the iconic fire tower
You begin at Torenstraat, where an impressive 25-meter-high fire tower stands. Besides a fascinating piece of history, this tower still plays an important role: during dry periods, forest rangers watch over the woodland here day and night to detect fire hazards early.

For those seeking peace and nature
The Blue Route is your invitation to relax, enjoy, and be carried away by the calm beauty of the woodland. Put on your hiking shoes and discover the Kolisbos at its best!
