Description
Be amazed by the nature lease of the National Landscape South Limburg. This cycling tour leads around the rolling landscape of the Sint Jansbos. This sloping forest changes into the Biebosch on the northwest side. The route starts at Parkhotel Valkenburg, the oldest hotel in the Netherlands that is still in use. From here you cycle to a castle-like country house on the edge of Valkenburg: Kasteel Oost. A little further on, the next castle presents itself: Schaloen, from the 14th century. You will also pass the medieval castle Genhoes, which is beautifully embedded in the Geuldal. The castle is lovingly maintained and the historic castle garden has also been restored to its former glory. The history of Wijlre castle in the village of the same name goes all the way back to 1040. In Gulpen, stop off at De Pannekoekenmolen!
