Great city center and at Christmas and all the lights it's really worth it :)

This seems to me more like a depot or loading and unloading area (or something else) than a mine entrance, because I don't think horizontal mine entrances ever existed in Limburg, at least not for the coal mines. You could only go down through the shafts.

Very challenging and very steep. Be careful here. There is a rope, best to use it.

Hidden among the greenery of Hoge Kempen National Park lies a silent witness to the past: an old mine entrance. This entrance recalls the time when coal was mined deep underground here—the black gold that made the Limburg region bustle with activity for decades. What was once a place of hard labor, dust, and noise has now been replaced by tranquility and nature. The surrounding forests and hills have reclaimed the land, but the contours of the mining past remain visible in the landscape. The weathered brick gates and the occasional palpable cooler air at the entrance evoke images of the miners who descended here day in, day out. Today, this place stands as an impressive historical monument within the nature park. A reminder of human resilience and of the transformation from industry to nature.

Keienstrand lies on the shore of a clear lake in the Hoge Kempen National Park. This spot has a primal quality: large, rounded stones lie scattered along the water's edge, the wind gently blowing across the surface. It's a place that invites peace and reflection… where you can sit for a moment, listening to the lapping of the water and observing the play of light and shadow on the stones. The stones are a reminder of the geological history of this landscape, shaped by gravel extraction and nature restoration. Now, Keienstrand is a haven for both people and animals: dragonflies buzz above the water, birds skim low over the shore, and the scent of pine fills the air.

Deep in the marl hills of Valkenburg lie the famous Neolithic flint mines, one of the oldest industrial sites in the Netherlands. People dug marl here as early as 2800 BC to extract flint, a hard rock used for tools such as arrowheads, knives, and axes. The tunnels extend dozens of meters beneath the hill and offer an impressive glimpse into how our distant ancestors shaped their habitat. The mines are unique and offer insights into the daily life and technological knowledge of the first farmers and hunters in South Limburg. Over the centuries, the tunnels have sometimes been flooded, subsided, or partially collapsed, but the traces of mining are still clearly visible. Today, parts of the flint mines can be visited via guided tours or special routes where you can literally follow in the footsteps of people from 5,000 years ago.
