Park of Woluwe

Park of Woluwe is a 69 hectare green space with rolling hills, winding paths, and three ponds situated between Boulevard du Souverain and Avenue de Tervueren. The grounds contain expansive lawns, sports fields, playgrounds, and picnic areas spread across the entire site.

King Leopold II initiated the park's creation in the late 1800s to enhance Avenue de Tervueren for Brussels World Exposition in 1897. The project transformed the then rural area into a modern public space and shaped the development of the surrounding neighborhoods.

The park serves as a gathering place where neighbors and families use the open meadows for leisure and the paths as daily routes through their neighborhoods. You see people jogging, playing with children, and simply sitting on benches that line the green spaces.

The park is accessible from multiple points and easy to explore on foot, with marked paths winding through various areas. Best times to visit are late mornings or early afternoons when the park is less crowded and lighting is pleasant for walking.

The site contains about 180 different tree species, including giant sequoias, recognized by Dendrology Belgium for their botanical importance. This diversity makes the park an interesting place for those wanting to learn about various species or observe seasonal changes.
