The Stippelberg owes its name to the 'dots' in the landscape. These are spring dunes that were created when the area was still open and the sand could drift freely. The shifting sand got stuck on the wetter soils of the Breuk van Milheeze. The result: a hilly landscape full of dots.

The Stippelberg owes its name to the so-called Stippeln (points) in the landscape. You can see them well along the way. These are jumping dunes that were created when the area was still open and the sand was free to drift. The drifting sand got stuck on the moister soil of the Breuk van Milheeze. This is how sand hills are created in the landscape: the stipples (points). Here you walk over these old drifting dunes.
