The Geul is a river in southern Limburg, the Netherlands. It is one of the few fast-flowing streams/rivers in the Netherlands and has a unique character due to the hilly landscape through which it flows.

Beautiful walk. It's tough because of the snow, but the environment makes up for a lot😊

Sometimes you have those routes that you just keep returning to. This was my second visit to the hilly landscape and perhaps even the third time I have walked this specific layout, and it remains special every time.
This time I wasn't alone. Today Naomi walked with me, and that immediately gave the tour a different atmosphere. The day actually …

Beautiful walk.
Some paths are densely overgrown. Strollers are definitely out of the question here.

July 2, 2024,Van Mechelen naar Volmolen Epen

This afternoon I walked this route with a starting point in Mechelen with an occasional steep climb... it is a varied route with a lot of interesting facts... walking along the Geul I arrive at the Volmolen in the hamlet of Plaat near the village of Epen... close by the mill flows into the Terzieterbeek in the Geul... just past …

March 29, 2025,Prächtige Aussichten – Volmolen Runde von Epen

With the beautiful weather, I couldn't stay indoors, of course, so I went on a lovely tour through our neighboring country, as beautiful as ever. But in Epen (NL), with 1,000 inhabitants, a mid-Lent festival, carnival, 60 floats, 40 walking groups, it was crazy. A dream, stopping in Mechelen and finishing off at the always beautiful Buitenlust.

May 26, 2024,Epen - Mechelen

'Picked' a route from Komoot and it turned out to be a beautiful trip (except for the last kilometers, but more about that later). I am still grateful to the person who once recommended Komoot to me 😁: I have already found several, often beautiful, walks there!
The weather was fine, dry and occasionally sunny.
There were some tough climbs …

“Hiking in the Euregio”
Today we went on a relatively short but intense hike around Epen and Mechelen in the Limburg Heuvelland with 8 people. Some people are surprised to think that everything in Holland is flat, but the Limburg Heuvelland has many hills and sometimes steep ones! 850 m of the route runs on the quiet asphalted Schweibergerweg, the …

Today is our last day in the Limburg Heuvelland. Checked out at the hotel in Bemelen around half past 11 and drove to Epen again. Started from the Volmolen and walked towards Mechelen, bits along the Geul. Enjoyed the beautiful views and nature. Along the way many cows in the meadows, villages with many professional week houses. In the forest …
