The opening consists of a beautiful, imposing rock wall, the quarry itself consists of a few short corridors. Very impressive to see, especially in the morning when the sun shines nicely on it.

This nearly 40-hectare quarry dates back to the 1930s. Marl was mined here in several phases. After the end of marl extraction in 2009, the quarry has been given a nature destination.

KOMOOT PROBLEMS.
No map on the screen while walking the route.
Voice navigation still worked correctly.
Close Komoot and restart on the mobile (Android) and the map is back on the screen, after 1-2 minutes no map again 😂.

A super nice hike around Berg en Terblijt over beautiful forest and meadow paths, also a bit along the Geul.
Lots of beautiful views 🥰.
You can park perfectly at the starting point and have something to eat and/or drink afterwards (🤣 and of course before):
