Bois de la Cambre - Ter Kamerenbos, Urban forest park in southern Brussels, Belgium
The 123-hectare park contains dense wooded areas in the north section and a 6-hectare artificial lake with Robinson Island in the south.
Created in 1866 under architect Édouard Keilig's direction, the park transformed a section of Sonian Forest while preserving two-thirds of existing trees.
British troops conducted a cricket match in 1815 at the location now marked by a commemorative plaque installed in 1965.
The park offers boat rentals at Chalet Robinson, numerous walking paths, playgrounds, and designated areas for picnicking throughout the grounds.
The 24 heures vélo du bois de la Cambre cycling event takes place annually since 1985, gathering scout groups from across the region.
