Het Leen

Het Leen covers 265 hectares of forest land with an extensive network of trails stretching over 30 kilometers through diverse woodland landscapes.

The provincial domain has evolved from traditional Flemish woodland into a managed forest area under the jurisdiction of East Flanders administration.

The forest information center regularly organizes educational programs for local schools and community groups to learn about forest ecosystems.

Visitors can access Het Leen free of charge through the main entrance at Gentsesteenweg 80 in Eeklo, with parking facilities available.

The domain features an arboretum containing numerous tree species and multiple fishing ponds integrated within the forest landscape.
