View of the Terhills Quarry Lake

Terhills (Maasmechelen)

While 26 years ago the Eisden coal mine was still operating at full capacity, today the rarest butterflies are fluttering. You will be able to enjoy a surprising landscape of “mountains and lakes” and high peaks offering spectacular panoramas!

Until recently this site was known as Connecterra, but from the end of January 2021 the name will change to Terhills, but the beauty of this area will remain unchanged. Also new, you can now walk around the area for free. Nature lovers can make a voluntary contribution to nature.

Be surprised by a special piece of nature in Flanders.

Nice view over the sand quarry!

I have seen many sand quarries, but this one is very impressive. On the other side, on the side of the motorway, a huge piece of style follows. There is no way to overcome this hurdle without getting off or E-mtb. If you do succeed, I would like to be curious how and with what material, condition, weight, etc.
