Cycling through Maastricht and the hills

The beautiful Maastricht is well discovered by bike. Around this old city you ride through the beautiful Heuvelland. That will be a long day full of sights and views!

Marl Church
You cycle through a landscape of sloping forests, grassy fields and orchards. In the old villages, half-timbered houses and marl churches give you the feeling that you are on holiday abroad. You pass Eijsden Castle, the current pleasure garden dates from 1636. In Eijsden you see many monumental mansions, such as on the Diepstraat and the old Maaskade. With a ferry you cross the Maas, wonderfully nostalgic!

Saint Servatius Bridge
You cycle a few kilometres through Wallonia, after crossing the canal you come through the Flemish border village of Kanne where you look out on the Sint-Pietersberg. Along the river Jeker you cycle into the historic city centre of Maastricht. You can cycle here, but walking with your bike in hand you can enjoy all those monumental sights better. From the thirteenth-century Sint-Servaasbrug, the oldest bridge in the Netherlands, you have a beautiful view of the city and the Maas.
