Kinderboerderij Den Ast

Kinderboerderij Den Ast is a farm with various animals including goats, sheep, chickens, rabbits, horses, ponies, llamas, and alpacas kept in spacious enclosures and pastures. The property also has parking areas for camper vans and horse tie-up facilities for extended stays.

The farm was created to introduce local children to farming practices and animal care. The initiative grew out of a desire to strengthen the connection between children and nature in the Flemish countryside.

The place gives children hands-on experience with farm animals and activities tied to the local landscape. Visitors can watch how animals are cared for and observe what daily farm work involves.

The farm is open daily with generous spaces spread across the grounds that are easy to walk through. Visitors should expect some mud and wear sturdy shoes, especially if the weather has been wet.

The site is rarely recognized as a place that welcomes travelers with camper vans or their own horses. This feature makes it a remarkable stop for people journeying with animals who want new experiences with other creatures.
