Guided tour Giele Botter (in French)
Guided tour Giele Botter (in French)
When we think of mining, we often think of underground tunnels. In our region, however, there was another method of ore extraction: open-cast mining. Very close to Fond-de-Gras is one of these old open-cast mines, commonly known as ‘Giele Botter’. Our experienced guide will show you this huge area, which is now a nature reserve.
The geology, history and impact of human activity make this reserve a UNESCO World Heritage Site not to be missed. There are many interesting things to discover on this nature walk, including the various biotopes and the associated conservation measures.
