Forest Park, Protected heritage park in Forest district, Belgium.

Forest Park is a 13-hectare public park on the steep slope between the upper and lower parts of Forest, in Brussels. It consists mainly of large lawns and an artificial mound planted with chestnut trees, with beech, ash, yew and birch also present. A villa in the centre hosts social and cultural activities, and old urban furniture remains here and there.

The park's creation was decided in 1875 as part of a plan linking upper Forest with new districts near Brussels-South station. Victor Besme drew the plans, and the project was privately funded through "anonymous donations" from Leopold II and figures such as Georges Montefiore-Levi, as Forest and Saint-Gilles could not agree. It opened in 1882 as Parc du Midi; in 1890 the king had Élie Lainé rework it to create a viewpoint towards the new Palace of Justice, and it took its current name in 1913.

The park's names changed with its users: opened in 1882 as Parc du Midi or Parc de Saint-Gilles, it took the name Parc de Forest in 1913. A villa at its centre now hosts social and cultural activities, and the artificial mound planted with chestnut trees is where locals gather to look out over the city.

The park lies in the north of Forest, bounded by Avenue des Villas, Avenue du Mont Kemmel, Avenue Besme and Avenue Reine Marie-Henriette, and is reached by premetro station Albert, tram 97 (Rochefort) and buses 48 and 52. The terrain drops steeply between the upper and lower parts of Forest, so expect slopes; the upper mound near Brussels' highest point gives the widest view.

The artificial mound planted with chestnut trees served as an observation point during the First World War, and about a dozen church steeples can be counted from it. The upper part of the park lies close to the highest point in Brussels, which is why the view over the city opens up from there.
