Hasselt
The 'land of 1001 ponds' — a vast nature reserve on the edge of Hasselt.
An exceptional nature reserve right on the edge of Hasselt, known as the 'land of 1001 ponds' for its chain of historic fish ponds. Wooden boardwalk paths and bird-watching lookouts lead you deep into the wetlands — a perfect escape from the city noise.
Local tip
This is the 'land of 1001 ponds.' Don't just stay on the main paved paths near the entrance. Walk deeper into the wooden boardwalk paths early in the morning — the mist rising off the fish ponds is surreal, and you'll have the bird-watching lookouts entirely to yourself.
