Koeboswandeling - Orange

SP - 532 - 722 - 533 - 524 - 525 - 526 - 530 - 532

The orange Koebos walk takes you as far as the Herendaalhoeve, one of the largest and oldest farms in the Hageland. This abbey farm dates back to the 13th century and was founded by the lords of Park Abbey in Heverlee. It is to these "lords" that the farm owes its name. After various stormings, fires and destruction over the years, the farm was gradually rebuilt. The landscape adjacent to the farm is called 'hell'. The word "hell" can be thought of as a dark, unknown depth, or come from the word slope, as the farmstead is in fact located atop a steep, wooded slope at the edge of the plateau.
