Hobokense Polder, Nature area in Hoboken, Antwerp, Belgium.
The Hobokense Polder extends between the Scheldt River and industrial zones, featuring wetlands, forests, and grasslands with marked walking trails throughout the reserve.
The land transformed from an agricultural polder regularly flooded by the Scheldt River into an industrial area during the 20th century before becoming a protected nature reserve.
Local environmental organization Natuurpunt manages the reserve while organizing educational activities and guided tours to promote environmental awareness among visitors.
Four distinct walking routes traverse the reserve, including a wheelchair-accessible path and the longer Adventure Route spanning 6.87 kilometers through various landscapes.
The reserve harbors 500 plant species, 360 mushroom varieties, and free-roaming Galloway cattle that maintain the ecological balance of the landscape.
