Culture Fruitière
We went apple picking at a beautiful apple orchard!
It is a nice experience for kids and they learn a lot of things. If you’re looking to go apple picking in Brussels, this is one of the closest places.
There is also an old swing – although the sign says to swing at your own risk 🙂
There are several varieties of apples. The price depends on how many kilos you buy
There are also two donkeys!
