Engsbergen is a village and parish in the municipality of Tessenderlo, in the Belgian province of Limburg. The village arose as a small place in the course of the Middle Ages, together with the other small centers of the municipality of Tessenderlo. There was already a chapel in the place in the 15th century. In 1806 Engsbergen became an independent parish. The current church, St. Lucia Church, was built in 1840. Engsbergen is located in a wooded area. In the north you will find the Gerhagen nature reserve, which also houses a forest museum. In the south, near and across the border with Flemish Brabant, is the domain Asdonk, with nature reserves Dassenaarde-Groot Asdonk and De Schans. The Winterbeek stream system with parallel streams also runs here.

--------------------

The center of Engsbergen is a suitable location to start a walking or cycling trip. Free parking near the church. Catering (cafés, brasserie, chip shop...) nearby and in the area. Information board with route indication can be found at the church.

A few hundred meters from this central place, you immediately arrive at the varied nature reserve of (Groot) Gerhagen. There are routes for walkers, cyclists and horse riders.

A small cozy village center where many residents of Tessenderlo have visited a cultural event or enjoyed a snack and a drink in the catering industry at the church, but above all the ideal starting point for hours of walking pleasure in the various nature reserves in almost all directions, especially in the north (Gerhagen, Houterenberg) and southern (Dassenaarde).
