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)

Het Zwart Water is a nature reserve southwest of the town of Lichtaart, which is part of the Antwerp municipality of Kasterlee, located near Lavendelweg 1-3. The area is managed by the Agency for Nature and Forests. The area is located on the Kempense Heuvelrug and consists of a fen that used to be in a drifting sand and heathland area, but was largely forested with conifers during the 19th century. On the edge of the fen you will find bog myrtle thickets, willow swamp forest and poor grassland. There is a floating dome in the fen that forms a safe resting place for birds. The forest is gradually being transformed into more mixed forest. In addition, there are remnants of heathland.

Beautiful fen and nature around it, take a seat on one of the benches and enjoy the silence and the sounds of nature. But the fen is also the ideal location for mosquito larvae, so some precautions are recommended.

With its 16 hectares, De Duivelskuil is a rather small but very varied nature reserve. It treats you to a characteristic Kempen landscape. In addition to dry heathland and wet heathland, you will also find some beautiful fens and a piece of bog bog. A moist alder-birch forest and a dry oak-birch forest and also a lot of Scots pine.
