Where nature beckons you

Welcome to Kalmthout!

For years, Kalmthout has been the place par excellence to sit back, relax and recharge your batteries in a pure, unspoilt habitat. The unique environment offers a haven of peace and quiet and makes the Kalmthoutse Heide the perfect place for an unforgettable day out. Or how about spending a few days roaming a varied landscape of (pine) forests and fens. You’ll be amazed by the vast panoramas that evoke images of an African safari.

There are many other hidden magical places to discover. Precious pearls that you can seek out and enjoy all day long.

Autumn in Kalmthout!

Put on your walking boots and discover the charm of Kalmthout’s beautiful countryside this autumn. A brisk walk through the Kalmthoutse Heide is the perfect way to experience autumn. Walk through the changing landscape, enjoy the fresh air and be amazed by the colours of the heathland and woods. Would you like to find out more about the history of Kalmthout or its beautiful natural surroundings? Then be sure to join one of our guided walks.

There’s also plenty to do at Arboretum Kalmthout. On Sunday 4 October, it’s the annual Planting Day – the must-attend event for lovers of unusual plants, greenery and gardens. Be inspired, discover new species and perhaps even take a little piece of the Arboretum home with you.

Do you prefer to stay indoors when autumn shows you its wettest side? Then dive into the wonderful world of Spike and Suzy at the Spike and Suzy Museum (in Dutch: Suske en Wiske Museum), or discover everything about bees and honey at the interactive Bee Exhibition ‘Honingsporen’.

Welcome to Kalmthout, where autumn takes on just that little bit more colour!
