Archemerberg is part of the Natura 2000 area Lemelerberg, a large nature reserve with mainly forest and heathland. The Archemerberg and the Lemelerberg are special, because there are only a few places in the Netherlands where you can look out over the surrounding area so far away. Especially on windless mornings after a cold night it is beautiful to look out over the misty landscape.
The Archemerberg was created in the penultimate ice age, the Saalien. The Besthmenerberg, the Lemelerberg, the Salland ridge and the lower moraines at Daarle and Hoge Hexel were also created at that time. The advancing land ice has large amounts of frozen sand, gravel and clay, mainly deposited by rivers, pushed out in front of it and stacked like large scales on top of each other like tiles. The material transported through the ice, the ground moraine, boulder clay with many Scandinavian boulders, can be found along the edge of the moraine. In many places the boulder clay has been eroded, leaving a sprinkling of stones.
The moraine of the Archemerberg and Lemelerberg is intact in shape and very representative of the glacial landscape in the Netherlands.
