When we think of mining, we often think of underground tunnels. However, another method of ore extraction existed in our region: open-pit mining. Near Fond-de-Gras lies one of these former open-pit mines, commonly known as "Giele Botter." Our experienced guide will introduce you to this extensive area, now transformed into a natural reserve. The geology, history, and human impact make this reserve a UNESCO World Heritage site worth visiting. The outdoor hike offers numerous notable discoveries, including various biotopes and the conservation efforts associated with them.
