Cycling through the paradisiacal Heuvelland

Occasionally it takes some climbing in the Limburg Hills, but you also get something in return: beautiful panoramas over a characteristic landscape. You will also come across many sights. In short: it will be a nice long day!

Oud-Valkenburg
The route starts at Cycle Center Valkenburg, the ideal place to rent a bicycle for a tour through the Heuvelland. At Broekhem you will immediately see several monumental villas. Further on you drive past the neoclassical Kasteel Oost, made of marl. You will also pass Schaloen Castle and Genhoes Castle, located on the Geul. In picturesque Oud-Valkenburg you will experience the atmosphere of a bygone era. And all within a few kilometers!

St Anthony's Bank
There is also plenty of cultural history to experience in villages such as Schoonbron, Etenaken and Stokhem. In Gulpen you will pass the striking church tower to which St. Peter's Church was once attached. The church tower dates from the thirteenth century and originally also served as a defense structure. Further on you cycle through the old picturesque hamlet of Sint Antoniusbank. Towards the end of the route you drive past the deciduous forest of De Dellen, a nature reserve rich in relief.
