Bridge at Cottessen

Highlight • Bridge

The Cottesserbeek and the Beversbergbeek are two smaller streams in South Limburg, often tributaries or substreams of larger waterways like the Geul. They flow through the hilly landscape and contribute to the area's rich biodiversity. These streams create natural wetlands where unique plants and animals live, making the landscape diverse and vibrant.

Geuldal Valley

Highlight • River

Very varied hike for experienced hikers because of the duration: river valley, meadow landscape, beautiful avenues of deciduous forest, a longer incline that should be tackled slowly for inexperienced hikers.

View of the Limburg Hills

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view of the Limburg hills is enchanting and picturesque. From the higher elevations, you see rolling landscapes, green meadows, vineyards, and charming villages stretching to the horizon. It feels almost foreign and exudes a tranquility unique in the Netherlands.

Annual tradition: a long weekend of walking with my cousin Marjolein. This time in South Limburg. Nice practice for a walking holiday in Luxembourg. Nice varied walk.
