The Asberg is the highest point in Westerlo, a 24-meter-high sand dune. Rumors circulate that the hill was once used as a cemetery. Evidence of this was found when part of the hill was excavated in 1860. Urns containing ashes from cremations were unearthed. Other rumors tell the story of the Elves (Alfen) who once lived here, which is why the hill is also called the Alverberg. (Visit DeMerode)

Old unpaved footpaths are still common in the agricultural area between Halen and Loksbergen. The road layout has changed relatively little between the 17th century and the present. East of these roads lies the Betserbaan, which played a key role in the Battle of Halen. Of interest is this Kanoniersstraat, which is unpaved for its entire length between the Betserbaan and the Kauwplasstraat (1.6 km) and has a cart track as its base. Where this road crosses the summit of the Mettenberg, it cuts into the flanks, creating a sunken lane with wooded banks on the verge. These wooded banks belong to the category of "indigenous trees and shrubs," with the most common species being robinia, oak, and hawthorn. Historically, the Kanoniersstraat was the old connecting road between Halen and Leuven across the interfluve of the Ketelbeek and IJzerenbeek (demonstrable by a 17th-century tithe map). It has since lost its role as a connecting road. Kanoniersstraat has now been given a purely local role, allowing it to retain its authentic appearance as an old road.

Hiking to the top of the slag heap does indeed require some effort, but you will be rewarded with beautiful panoramas of the surroundings. And along the way there are benches here and there where you can, if necessary, recover.

A sunken road is a road that is so deeply worn that it lies between two slopes. It is the result of centuries of use and erosion. The most beautiful sunken roads can be found especially in hilly areas with a subsoil that easily forms steep walls, such as in Haspengouw and Hageland.

Beautiful area with two Terrils (a mountain of stone waste as a by-product of underground mining). The large one is approximately 135m high and the small one is approximately 95m high. The small one also has a spectacular mountain bike park and a play hill (be-Mine). It's wonderful how they turned something old into something beautiful. There is also a Mining Museum and Diving Basin with sybtropical fish (TODI).
