Description
How wonderful it is to cycle in South Limburg. You will find everything for a successful day out: beautiful landscapes, lots of heritage and cosy terraces.
Valkenburg Castle
You cycle through the protected cityscape of Valkenburg. In this historic city center you will find city walls, the Grendelpoort from the fourteenth century and of course the ruins of Valkenburg Castle. Get off your bike to admire this unique place at your leisure. Just before the village of Wolfshuis you will pass the Van Tienhovenmolen from 1855. It is the only mill in the Netherlands that is built entirely of marl. Another unique photo opportunity!
St. Anthony's Bench
In Sint Antoniusbank, a hamlet of about 40 houses, you will find a lot of history. There are two closed square farms, two beautiful monumental farms and a former monastery. Your camera will be working overtime here! The last part of the route takes you past De Dellen, a nature reserve rich in relief. The route ends at Herberg De Geulhemermolen. A cozy and historic location for a bite to eat and a drink, because the inn is located in a watermill from 1768!
