A meandering stream through the Limburg landscape, surrounded by green meadows, forests and authentic villages. The Geleenbeek is a popular spot for hikers and cyclists who want to experience the peace and natural beauty of South Limburg. In spring and summer, colorful flowers bloom along the banks.

The Geleenbeek is a major watercourse in South Limburg, flowing through wooded valleys, farmland, and villages before flowing into larger rivers. This stream has played a significant role in Limburg's landscape for centuries, both ecologically and historically. Along the Geleenbeek, you'll find marshes, reed beds, and smaller waterways that are home to a wide variety of flora and fauna, such as kingfishers, dragonflies, and beaver tracks.

The Geleenbeek meanders through a diverse landscape: from tranquil woodlands to open meadows and steep banks. The stream valley has influenced land use throughout the centuries; water was found there for agriculture, mills, and later, small industries. The stream itself has been regularly reshaped to prevent flooding, resulting in its current pattern, shaped by both natural and human intervention.
