The Kesselse Heide is a provincial domain with scenic value in Kessel, a part of the Belgian Nijlen. The domain has an area of 43 ha. The Kesselse Heide was founded in 1976 and has been a protected landscape since 1996.
In the breeding season, the domain is closed because of the many protected bird species that have their biotope here. It is a heath-peat area on the border of the Kempen and the alluvial soils of the valley of the Kleine Nete. There are some fens located on the domain. On the Kesselse Heide there is a grazing project with about fifty sheep so that the unwanted grasses are removed in a natural way.
