The Geul is a river in southern Limburg, the Netherlands. It is one of the few fast-flowing streams/rivers in the Netherlands and has a unique character due to the hilly landscape through which it flows.

The Geul is a river that originates with multiple sources in the municipality of Raeren in Belgium at the Zyklopensteine on the German border, near the town of Lichtenbusch. She leaves Belgium at Sippenaeken and enters the Netherlands at Cotssen. At the hamlet of Voulwames above Itteren, it flows into the Meuse.

Great countryside to go walking in. Was very rainy and muddy when I went, but still worth the outing
