The Lingebos is a constructed forest and recreation area near the town of Vuren in the Dutch province of Gelderland.
The area covers about one and a half square kilometers. It was created at the end of the 60s by the government as a recreation area for the Randstad. On 26 June 1969, the Lingebos was officially opened by the then Princess Beatrix. The Linge forest has a recreational lake, a sand hole which was created by mining sand for the construction of the cloverleaf at Gorinchem and the widening of the A15. The recreational lake has a surface area of about 10 hectares and a maximum depth of 14 meters.
