Danikerbos

Daniken
Sweikhuizen
The Danikerbos is a forest that flanks the Geleenbeek. On one side is a large fish pond and on the other side you can climb the Danikerberg. This hill is the highest point in the area and used to be a grim place. Members of the infamous gang of robbers, the Bokkenrijders, were hanged here.

The graves are typical for the Danikerberg. These are small, overgrown slopes in an open area. They ensure that animals can move (unseen by the enemy) and are therefore very important. Grafts are a characteristic landscape element for South Limburg. Researchers don't know exactly how they came to be!
