Scheutbos Park, Protected heritage park in Molenbeek, Belgium.

Scheutbos Park is a six-hectare regional park within a 44-hectare protected site in Molenbeek. A paved tan path runs through low grass and trees, edged with gravel, dark blocks and a raised brick lip, with stone steps and two wooden benches.

In the 8th century the area was a forest; four centuries later it was largely cleared into farmland linked to the castles of Moortebeek and Ravenstein. In 1356 the Count of Flanders defeated Brussels troops here. The Scheutbos became a regional park in 1995, and the natural site was classified in 1997.

The Nature House occupies a former farm building and hosts environmental organizations working on local sustainability projects. Visitors can experience how this space connects nature conservation with neighborhood engagement.

The park lies near Boulevard Louis Mettewie and is managed by Bruxelles Environnement. The main path is paved in light tan, with a gravel stretch and brick edging, and short stone steps cross it near the middle; two wooden benches stand beside it. The site is part of the Brussels green walk, and the wider 44-hectare classified area extends beyond the six-hectare regional park.

The Leybeek stream was uncovered after decades underground and now flows openly through the park. This restoration shows how cities can bring back habitats for wildlife and plants within urban areas.
