Viewed from above, with a little imagination, the Kempen Ridge's relief can be seen as if a giant were sleeping beneath the landscape. Because of the vegetation on the sand dunes, they no longer move, and the giant's slumber is not disturbed. In 2018, Gijs Van Vaerenbergh's artwork, "A Giant Sculpture," was unveiled. It was placed on the 30-meter-high summit of the Hoge Mouw sand dune. (Efkesweg.be)

The mill, a colossus weighing over thirty tons, was moved to this location in 1954 and was then designated a protected monument. Previously, the mill stood on Kerkenbergen, along the road to Retie. (Information board on site)

A farmer (Mil) built a small bridge, following the line of De Reep, over the Kleine Nete to reach the other side. This bridge was of interest to several people, and over the years, the municipality upgraded it. Since then, the bridge has been an idyllic spot over the Kleine Nete.

In a thunderstorm, it is best not to touch it, a lightning strike can be dangerous. Inside it is a Faraday cage and you are safe, but what if you touch the corten steel at the moment that lightning strikes? Still, stay away from this beautiful work of art in a thunderstorm!?
