Forêt de Nieppe - Bois Flamingue

Forest

8.03 km

The name of the forest refers to the Nieppe, a now canalized tributary of the Leie.
The forest currently covers approximately 2600 hectares, but at one time it must have extended to the village of the same name, located approximately 20 km further west (near Armentières).
