Write your own autumn story in the parks of Brussels
Brussels takes on an almost cinematic character in autumn. Golden leaves drift past elegant facades, parks turn red and copper, and the city invites you to take long, atmospheric walks. From The Scott Hotel in Saint-Gilles, every outing feels like the beginning of a new chapter.
Two parks two different moods
Duden Park offers an unexpected forest atmosphere in the middle of the city. Monumental beech trees, sloping paths and dramatic changes in height give it an adventurous character. Several spots also provide beautiful views across Brussels. Nearby Forest Park offers a more open and peaceful landscape. Its wide lawns, flowerbeds, groups of trees and generous paths make it easy to combine both parks in one autumn walk.
Classic elegance in central Brussels
Brussels Park creates an elegant setting between the Royal Palace and Parliament. In autumn, its beech, maple, oak and chestnut trees add a lively palette of colours to the statues and geometric avenues. Josaphat Park is another inspiring destination. Its hills, sculptures and remarkable trees bring a new discovery around every corner, creating a true open-air museum where culture meets nature. After your walk, return to the warm world of The Scott. Velvet, soft lighting and references to the Roaring Twenties provide the perfect setting for the next chapter of your Brussels stay.
