In the heart of the province of Limburg lies a beautiful hilly landscape. The diversity of nature is particularly surprising in the national park "De Meinweg" east of Roermond. "De Meinweg" is characterized by a so-called terraced landscape. This means that there are three plateaus, the highest of which is 80 meters above sea level. The hilly landscape was largely formed by sediment deposited along the Rhine and Meuse over the centuries, but earthquakes have also played their part.
