Halle Travel Guide

Good morning all, hope everyone had a great Memorial day weekend.

This picture is from Belgium when we took a trip to a forest that is fairly famous because of all the bluebells that bloom. Hallerbos was pretty but I do not think it had reached its prime yet this year because thought beautiful was not the explosion you often see int he pictures. However it was a fun excursion out there and a nice walk in the woods.

Hallerbos - The Blue Forest' - is situated in Belgium. Every year the forest turns into a magical place, thanks to a beautiful carpet of bluebells which start to bloom around mid-April. Absolutely worth visiting!

Belgium is one of the most beautiful countries!

Hallerbos – ‘The Blue Forest’ – is the most important and most extensive forest area between Zenne and Zoniën. The forest is a crowd favourite thanks to the beautiful purple carpet of bluebells, which bloom around mid-April. The giant Sequoia trees also make a visit to this forest more than worth it.
