The pronunciation is often incorrect, but with a hyphen, it's better: Bele-ven. There's plenty to experience, especially if you're a birdwatcher. A true paradise for many birds, the Spoonbill is also regularly spotted, and it's a breeding ground for various meadow birds. From a mammoth-shaped wooden platform, you have a magnificent view of Het Beleven. Sandy paths crisscross the nature reserve "Het Beleven" with wide verges and hedgerows; 'Suskes Klompenpedje' (7.5 km)—the name gives it away—you can follow the wooden clogs. A printed version of the route is available at the Hollandershoeve and Visit Reusel-De Mierden. Het Beleven is situated in a bowl-shaped depression. And to think, until recently, there were only corn fields here. The deep drainage ditches have been filled in, and the enriched soil has been largely removed. Source: Brabantslandschap.nl

Many captivating stories have been written about this well (not just any well). The first probably dates back to 1571, when Lieske Coolbonders committed suicide by drowning herself in the well while the devil himself was pursuing her. Lieske was the illegitimate daughter of Katrien Coolbonders, who was raped by a Spanish nobleman. The nobleman was murdered by Katrien's husband. The body was first dumped in the Devil's Well. Later, it was buried somewhere nearby. (Efkesweg.be)
