The Henkeput (in the dialect 'Eenkeput') is located north of the Schone Grub on a slope of the plateau. It is an open funnel-shaped pit, turning into a cylindrical shaft, which gives access to a dome-shaped space excavated in marl with a flat bottom, from which a large number of niches emanate. You can read that and all other facts about this well - at least for those interested - at vuursteenmijnen.nl/rijckholt/de-henkeput.html

As an MTB myself, you are absolutely not allowed to cycle here. There are 5 up and down paths that are allowed.
