Beavers go for a walk in the park and litter pickup

As true Scouts who enjoy the outdoors and strive to leave every place just a little tidier than we found it, our Beavers met in the beautiful Woluwe Park for a nature walk and litter pickup.

Instead of gathering at our usual headquarters in Parc Parmentier, the group met just across Avenue de Tervueren to both enjoy and care for the environment. While exploring the park, the Beavers collected litter and learned how to sort waste properly—they even had the chance to meet a professional Bruxelles Propreté crew!

Woluwe Park (Parc de Woluwe) is one of the largest and most prestigious green spaces in Brussels, located in the municipality of Woluwe-Saint-Pierre. Designed in the late 19th century under King Leopold II, it is known for its rolling landscapes and English-garden style. Unlike traditional formal gardens, it features artificial hills, valleys, and winding paths to create a more "wild" and romantic English atmosphere. The park covers an area of around 70 hectares and it was created for the 1897 World’s Fair as part of a larger project to connect central Brussels to the Royal Estate in Tervuren via the monumental Avenue de Tervueren by the French landscape architect Élie Lainé.
