Green Key
Bokrijk is committed to working in a sustainable manner every day. Since 2011, our Open-air Museum has received the Green Key every year. With this award, GoodPlanet Belgium, with the support of Tourism Flanders, rewards operators of tourist accommodations and attractions in Flanders for the efforts they make for the environment.
In the museum, we focus strongly on living and natural heritage. In this way, we create an interesting and multi-layered (inter)action in the field of fauna and flora, for our employees, volunteers and visitors. Curious about our main actions?
Nature management
Thanks to the fantastic nature management by our employees, the Bokrijk forests are home to an exceptionally rich biodiversity. We are transforming our forests into mixed forests. These are more stable and have a higher resistance to climate change and diseases. Also, we are pushing back aggressive exotic species in favor of native species. And we manage open spaces in a way that is adapted to nature.
