De Dellen is a special nature reserve in the hills just outside Maastricht. Put on your sturdy shoes for a nice trip.

Amby
The route starts in Amby. Until 1970 this was a village for centuries, then it became a suburb of Maastricht. Walking across the green Lindenplein you can still taste that quiet village atmosphere. From the Molenweg you have a beautiful view of the green hills. You pass a road cross, after which you walk on an unpaved path through a mosaic of meadows and forest. What a rest!

The Dells
Further on you walk into De Dellen. Until the twentieth century, this area was only covered with heather. In the rolling landscape it is now wonderful to walk under the canopy of summer oaks, beeches and maples. Just as you exit the forest, you will see an eighteenth-century farmhouse on your left. Back in beautiful Amby, it's time for something delicious at Hof van Huntjens.
