Walking along the Maas and through Eijsden

Just below Maastricht you can take a beautiful walk along the Maas. You will also pass through the picturesque Eijsden.

Eyser Meadows
The first meters you walk along the banks of the Pietersplas to the park of Kasteel Oost. Since 1950, the former medieval castle looks mainly like a country house. In the adjacent Eijsder Beemden you walk through a mosaic of grasslands, ponds, willow forests and an old high-stem orchard. On the horizon lie the wooded hills.

East Maarland
In Eijsden you walk along the former Ursuline monastery. The facade of this monument from 1899 was designed by the famous architect Pierre Cuypers. Further on is the Sint-Martinus church: the late Gothic marl tower dates back to 1500. At Heerlijkheid Breust you can take a seat on a terrace for a meal or coffee with pie. Through the countryside with orchards you walk to Oost-Maarland, where you will see several centuries-old farms.
