Dog walking in Turnhout and Antwerpen

Around Turnhout and Antwerpen there is room for real outdoor days — think Visdonk (Bergen op Zoom / grensstreek), Lichtaart / Floreal-zone, Kievitsheide Rijkevorsel, Kempense bossen rond Kasterlee–Herentals. That mix of open space, sniffing and movement is what our group outings are built for.

For owners in Turnhout and surroundings (Turnhout, Oud-Turnhout, Beerse, Vosselaar) we're gauging demand for group day trips with home pickup. Once enough dogs are close together, we plan a fixed pickup route — until then, every signup counts.

Typical outing areas around Turnhout: Visdonk (Bergen op Zoom / grensstreek), Lichtaart / Floreal-zone, Kievitsheide Rijkevorsel, Kempense bossen rond Kasterlee–Herentals.
