    Hiking

    be-MINE is the name for the renewed coal mine site of Beringen-Mijn. The renovation and repurposing is not quite finished yet. For example, work is being done on the second shaft and there are still a few buildings to go. In November 2022, a renewed permit application was also made for an allotment project on the site and an environmental permit was also applied for for the be-NATURE project. "That is a project for part of the former mining site, namely at the coal washing plants." You can read more about that last larger project here: vrt.be/vrtnws/nl/2022/11/21/be-mine-vraagt-milieustarieven-aan-voor-be-nature

    Be-MINE, the mining site in Beringen, is the best preserved and largest industrial heritage site in Flanders. At the foot of two slag heaps, the past is brought together with a completely new interpretation of the area.

    Hiking

    The mining site in Beringen is the best preserved mining site in Europe.
    You can completely immerse yourself in the heroic history of the miners and on top of that be-MINE also offers a wide range of contemporary, adventurous attractions and experiences.
