The beauty of South Limburg

In South Limburg you don't have to make an effort to enjoy the surroundings. The lovely stream valleys and green hills are a feast for the eyes. This route takes you past Gulpen, Epen and through the Voer region.

Flemish Carrying
At De Plank Eten Drinken Slapen you can first eat something on the cozy panoramic terrace, so that you can get on your bike with enough energy. You drive to Ulvend, a picturesque hamlet located exactly on the border of the Netherlands and Belgium. The wooded and Burgundian Voerstreek is a quirky part of Flemish Limburg that is surrounded by Wallonia in Belgium. Here too you will see many chapels, square farms and field crosses in the rolling landscape.

Upper Mill
You pass through Plaat and Terpoorten, two picturesque villages on the Geuldal. Just below Mechelen you pass through the hamlet't Höfke where the Bovenste Molen is located. This water mill dates from 1828 and is used to grind grain. A little further on you will pass the Onderste Molen, which is also located on the Geul. This flour mill originally dates from the thirteenth century. You cycle through Euverem, Billinghuizen and Slenaken, villages where you see half-timbered houses and old churches.
