    Molenbeemd or Molenbeemden is a nature reserve located north of Membruggen, within the municipalities of Bilzen and Riemst. The area encompasses the banks of the Molenbeek, one of the source rivers of the Demer River. It lies on the southern border of Humid-Haspengouw. Since 1966, the area has been managed by the "Orchis" nature association. Because the area became overgrown, the municipality of Riemst decided in 1984 to reintroduce traditional hayfield management, which resulted in a depletion of nutrients in the area. Marsh marigolds and slender primroses are found in the area. The area is a habitat for the rare narrow-leaved whorl snail and the sedge whorl snail. The area is protected by European law as part of the Natura 2000 area "Jeker Valley and Upper reaches of the Demer Valley."
