This birdwatching hut is located a stone's throw from the Arenberg domain and the KUL campus on the Kapeldreef. Here the Dijle enters the area before flowing through Leuven via the domain mentioned. Just before the birdwatching hut the Leiegracht flows into the river and from the birdwatching hut you can see over the sand trap and the drainage basin after which the Dijle flows to the Arenbergmolen.

The name Mollendaal and Mollendaalbos has many variations. For example, people here also speak of the shelter at De Moemedel and Mommedel (as the forest reserve is called). The hut is also open at the back. You can see the small valley that lies there. Or call it a valley because that is where the name comes from. And quite a few springs originate. Fun fact: the current shelter is fairly new and largely made with recycled wood from the previous one. It also has a Sedum roof, you know: a green roof. Finally: this shelter is located on the GR 512 Brabantse Heuvelroute.
