N70 Trail Steps at Heerlijkheid Beek

Highlight • Trail

Down and up again via these stairs through the valley. You do not encounter many height differences in the Netherlands. A good reason to go for a walk here.

Belvedere Tower, Nijmegen

Highlight • Monument

This watch and watchtower was built in the 15th century as a rampart tower. Nowadays it houses a restaurant, where you can still find ornaments from the 17th century.
