Right in the center of Vosselaar is a remarkable green zone, the Konijnenberg. This crescent-shaped inland dune is 36.33 meters above sea level, making it the highest shifting dune in the Antwerp Kempen. The Konijnenberg is spread over a length of 700 meters and a width of 70 to 120 meters. The height of this shifting dune of dark yellow sand is indicated with a height pole. Protected by Monuments and Sites, the mountain and its green surroundings largely belong to the municipality. Access to the domain is therefore free.

The Konijnenberg, a crescent-shaped dune, is the only relic of the shifting dune complex in the vicinity of Beerse-Vosselaar. A few late medieval coppice stumps have been preserved on the dune ridge.

The Konijnenberg is a northeast-southwest oriented crescent-shaped dune with a length of approximately 700 meters that extends from the village center of Vosselaar in a southwesterly direction. This dune is the only relic of the shifting dune complex in the vicinity of Beerse-Vosselaar. The average height of this area is approximately 25 meters +TAW, the dune top is at more than 35 meters +TAW.
