Entry gates

The four gates to the heart of our nature reserve

Grenspark Kalmthoutse Heide is freely accessible between sunrise and sunset and can best be accessed by one of the four official entry gates.

The four entry gates are often the starting point for hiking and cycling routes. Visitors will also find a lot of information here about everything the park offers. There is a parking lot and the gates offer opportunities to enjoy a snack or a drink.
