Explore Brussels in a whole new way. On this guided walk, you’ll learn how to identify edible wild plants growing right in the city. Discover the hidden flavors of parks, streets, and green corners, where nature quietly thrives.
Escape the city and discover hidden flavors in nature with this 2-hour guided Urban Foraging Walk in the Sonian Forest. Just minutes from the city center, this lush park is home to a surprising variety of wild edible plants, herbs, and trees.
During the walk, your guide will introduce you to the world of urban foraging, explaining how plants have been used for centuries in food and medicine, how to identify them safely, and how they can inspire modern cuisine.
To protect and respect the urban ecosystem, the walk focuses on observation and learning rather than harvesting. Instead, you’ll enjoy a carefully curated appetizer and a drink, prepared with wild-inspired ingredients, allowing you to taste the forest’s flavors in a relaxed, social setting.
This experience is perfect for curious explorers, nature lovers, and food enthusiasts looking for something different in Brussels - a refreshing alternative to the usual café or restaurant.
