Description
Along the Maas in Central Limburg you will find surprisingly beautiful old castles and country estates. You can also fully enjoy the peace and nature from the dike.
Wessem
You soon cross the Maas into Belgium. It is wonderfully peaceful to drive along the flowery floodplains. Just below Thorn you cross the border again. You pass De Grote Hegge, a centuries-old mansion. Further afield is Wessem, a gem on the Maas thanks to its well-preserved old city center. What a nice atmosphere you will experience here!
Linnerweerd
The Linnerweerd is one of the few remaining natural floodplains of the Meuse. Here you see an eighteenth-century country house: Ravensberg. In Heel you can see some beautiful old farms. You will also pass Nederhoven Castle, a moated hunting lodge from 1614. Further on is Heel Castle, another beautiful old building. Finally, you drive across the Island in the Maas again. Here you will find three towns with a rich history: Ohé, Laak and of course Stevensweert.
