Several marl quarries have been dug underground over the centuries, including the Caestert Quarry, the Caestert Burial Cellar, the Castle Quarry, the Ternaaien-Boven Groeve, the Ternaaien-Midden Groeve and the Ternaaien-Beneden Groeve. There is also an open pit quarry that mined marl, the Lost Valley.

Hiking
The Castle Cave is a unique place where history, architecture, and nature converge. Often located near or beneath a castle, such as in South Limburg or other historic regions, a castle cave served various purposes: from storing wine or provisions to sheltering or serving as a decorative garden feature within the castle grounds' landscaping.
The cave is usually situated in a wooded area or on a slope, where natural rock formations and limestone structures create an impressive backdrop. Winding paths, hills, and viewpoints often surround the cave, making it a haven for hikers and a haven of discovery.
