De Hoge Mouw with its sleeping giant

Highlight • Monument

The name "Slapende Reus", meaning "Sleeping Giant", does not come from this work of art by the architect and artist duo Gijs Van Vaerenbergh - it was rather inspired by the name. But where does he come from?

You are on the Kempen ridge, a chain of hills made of ferrous sandstone. Due to its length and height, it is not only the largest, but also the most impressive far and wide.

Look around you: the landscape, the forest, the heath and the sand have inspired people and stimulated their imagination for centuries. So it's no wonder that there are so many legends about mythical creatures here.

The huge shape of the shifting dunes makes it appear as if there is a giant in the landscape. Dunes typically move about five meters a year, while those in the Kempen no longer move. The vegetation on them has brought them to a standstill. As long as the vegetation is there, the dunes stand still - and the giant sleeps on.

Iron Age Play Zone

Highlight • Rest Area

Here you - or your offspring - can romp, swing and climb around to your heart's content. Of course, the whole thing also has an educational aspect: children can practice movement sequences here that they definitely don't have on the Playstation, and are challenged in a completely different way.
