Cycle through South Limburg at your leisure

This route takes you through the rolling landscape of South Limburg. On this relatively short route you have plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful panoramas and the historical buildings.

Vaelsbroek Castle
Soon you will pass the Frankenhofmolen, a reminder of Vaals' heyday as the centre of the eighteenth-century textile industry. This restored overshot watermill originally dates from 1736. Kasteel Vaelsbroek is a pleasure castle whose origins date back to the fifteenth century. Don't forget your camera, because the building is a picture.

Half-timbered farmhouses
You cross the border to cycle a bit through Wallonia. Here too, it is wonderfully quiet cycling between the green hills. In Sippenaeken you regularly hear Limburgish or even Dutch being spoken. You can admire the Sint-Lambertus church from 1840. In hamlets such as Diependal, Terpoorten and Camerig you can still experience the atmosphere of times gone by thanks to the many monumental half-timbered farms. Certainly in combination with the peace that characterizes the Heuvelland!
