Hiking

The Geul is a narrow, winding river that winds its way through the hilly landscape of South Limburg. Its clear water originates in Belgium and flows through picturesque villages like Epen and Mechelen to Valkenburg and onward to the Meuse River. Along the banks, you'll find flower-filled meadows, old windmills, and characteristic half-timbered farmhouses. The Geul not only gives the landscape a picturesque appearance but also brings life to the landscape: kingfishers, herons, and butterflies are often seen here.
