The need for "fortification" is timeless. The Romans protected their camps with ramparts and moats, as did the Vikings later. "Schans" originally meant "forest of branches or twigs," referring to the woven wooden structures that served as parapets for defense against the enemy. The (farmers') fortifications, such as the Schans van Gerhees, were built immediately following the Eighty Years' War (1568-1648), the Dutch Revolt against the Spanish Empire. During this turbulent time, the entire Kempen region suffered from roving bands and mutinous soldiers who targeted provisions and money.

Beringen mine spoil heap is a nature reserve on the territory of Koersel (part of Beringen) and is located on Terril number 2 of the former Beringen coal mine. Between 1941 and 1949, 11,600,000 m³ of stone was dumped here. Beringen mine spoil heap is owned by the Agency for Nature and Forests. The mine was closed in 1989 and the spoil heap was cleaned up in 1995. Herbs were sown and the whole was made accessible to the public. At a height of 125 m, 100 m above the surroundings, there is a plateau from which one has a view of the surroundings. The birds include the skylark, tree pipit, meadow pipit and lapwing. The queen page and the blue-winged grasshopper are some of the rare insects that occur in the area.

Over the planks, through beautiful nature...

The Adventure Mountain is a unique attraction that connects the foot of the small slag heap at the track park with the top, at a height of 55 m. A special play landscape, substantive heritage paths, breathtaking mountain bike paths (MTB) and views of relics of mining history together form a total concept in which experience is central.

Boardwalk through a marshy clearing in the forest. In the past, local farmers built a redoubt here, a kind of fortification to hide in from marauding troops.
