lovely rolling landscape from village to village and a stopover in Maastricht... recommended!!!

The Twijfelgrens is located at the Bollenberg viewpoint, which can be reached on foot or by bike. If you are driving, park at the car park on the Sint-Truidersteenweg, between the Grootloonstraat and the Neremstraat. From the car park, follow the signposted (blue or orange) walking route. (Visit Limburg)

Beautiful to walk through with all those young blossoms.

When you are in the church, you can admire the beautiful hilly landscape through the 'walls'. In the distance you can see the church of Borgloon. Many photographers also take a photo where you can see the church of Borgloon through the see-through church. You have this view from a certain spot in the meadow.

Here, at the gallows, you are at the highest point in Helshoven. The artwork 'Helsh(ea)ven' by Frits Jeuris, known to most as the 'floating chapel', invites you to enjoy that landscape and the work itself. It is made from cherry tree wood. At the end of 2016, the 50-year-old high-stemmed trees in Helshoven had to be cut down due to a viral disease, Little Cherry, which causes tasteless cherries. The gallows represents death. Dead trees. And the dead person. And then there are the trees that are given a second life in the artwork, the floating chapel. An end, a beginning, a view, between heaven and Helshoven, inviting reflection, looking and of course what the work is best known for: that strange image of a chapel that seems to float.

You don't see many high-stem orchards anymore, everyone already saw the plantations with smaller fruit trees. So there are initiatives here and there to preserve them. Various places in Limburg that are visited by hikers have pieces of high-stem orchard. The best known is perhaps that of Alden Biesen, where many tourists and hikers come. But here too, along the paths with crowd pullers (the see-through church and so on) there are. Like here in Grootloon where there is a path that takes you to the church. The management is done by local farmers with Natuurpunt. And in addition to the high-stem orchard preservation, there is also attention for the night owl and the dormouse, as the information boards here tell you.

Beautiful square surrounded by a great row of houses.

Doubting about boundaries. The border between this beautiful view and another. About the word doubt limit. And the boundary between me and that word in the form of a closure. The doubt line as an artificial boundary between nature and art objects. About landscapes and how they are defined. About the limitless and the attention to a border of doubt sooner than perhaps everything I would see without the attention that this border inevitably requires between pieces of agricultural land, artificially bordered by the crops that grow there and each have their color and shape to create order in the vastness in which doubt may be boundless. About life and death. You and me. Yesterday and tomorrow. And especially the perspective. Because without it you can't even read the doubt line. What about everything else? Are we seeing it from the right angle? To really "read" it. I doubt. And I am limited. Just give me the seemingly limitless views, then the boundary of myself disappears and I merge into the whole, your whole.
