The Cossack Pit owes its name to the wells that were dug here in the early nineteenth century. In 1804 French Batavian troops held army exercises in this area. To have water on the dry heathland, they dug 30 wells with a depth of about 10 meters. One well is still recognizable in the terrain as a deep hole.

Sand pit in the Cossack well can be a bit soggy in wet weather
