Kauwberg, Protected nature area in Uccle, Belgium.
The Kauwberg extends across 53 hectares of semi-natural terrain, featuring sandy slopes, meadows, and wet zones that support varied vegetation patterns.
During World War II, British forces used the Kauwberg area as a defensive installation, with military remnants still present within the landscape.
The Brussels-Capital Region acquired Kauwberg in 2019, transforming it from a threatened space into a protected heritage site for environmental conservation.
Visitors can reach Kauwberg through multiple entry points along Avenue Dolez, Avenue de la Chênaie, and Chaussée de Saint-Job using bus lines 37, 43, or 60.
The sandy slopes of Kauwberg contain specific habitats for wild bees, while its wet zones maintain rare vegetation types within an urban setting.
