Best nature place in Northern Limburg Province of Belgium: the Lommel Sahara reserve
(Browse the collection : Limburg province video shots and time lapse stock footage)
The Lommelse Sahara is a strange desert landscape of pure white sand planted with pine trees. It occupies an abandoned industrial site in the Kempen region where quartz sand was once mined and a polluting zinc factory killed off all the trees. This bleak wilderness was later used by a weapons manufacturer to test grenades, but it has been turned into a nature reserve, with hiking trails, an observation tower and a lake in the former quarry.
The sand-filled landscape of the Sahara Lommel desert may be in Belgium, but walking through its breathtaking scenery will feel just like visiting the famous african desert. Explore this natural environment on foot and enjoy the feeling of sand under your feet with stunning sights of clear blue lakes.
Today the Sahara of Lommel has become the ideal place to have a beach and holiday atmosphere and to enjoy the sun.
