The Kingbeek is a source stream in the Dutch province of Limburg that rises at the Hogenberg near Nattenhoven at the foot of the steep edge between the middle and lower terraces of the Meuse. The water fills a basin-shaped basin, the Sjprènk, after which the stream flows northwards through a source forest, 't Brook, to the built-up area of Obbicht. Along the way, it absorbs the water from numerous smaller springs. In the forest, the stream has the character of a fast-flowing mountain stream, but changes into a slow-flowing lowland stream near the built-up area.
From source to mouth, the Kingbeek runs almost parallel to the Meuse for a distance of 7 kilometres. The vegetation accompanying the stream, which mainly consists of pollard willows and poplars, is of great importance for the accentuation of the stream in the landscape. In terms of landscape, the stream is of decisive importance for the appearance of the green structure.
