The Herkenrode Abbey site is located in a special nature reserve. The Agency for Nature and Forest stimulates the development of a cultural-historical landscape with maximum natural value, in which people and nature each have their place.
The redevelopment of the nature reserve is based on two pillars: the restoration of historic land use and more space for water.
The agricultural lands have been converted into ecologically valuable areas. Wet and dry grasslands, swamp zones, standard orchards, wood edges, coppice groves and pools now define the landscape.
The ecological added value of this project is clear. Birds that feel at home in wet, open spaces find their way to Herkenrode. Amphibians, insects and butterflies appreciate the offer of nature restoration and a rich natural landscape is also attractive to visitors.
