보렌달‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Along the rippling Geul River, an impressive marlstone wall rises, a silent witness to Limburg's underground landscape. These calcareous rocks were used for centuries for construction and crafts and now offer a fascinating sight for hikers and nature lovers. The wall forms a natural boundary along the water and, in some places, harbors small caves and niches where flora and fauna have found a home. The contrast of the white marl against the green foliage and the glistening water of the Geul makes this a particularly photogenic and tranquil spot during your walk.

Beautiful part of the walk along the Geul

When the path that has been running between slopes and sloping forest on one side and the Geul on the other side suddenly starts to rise a bit, you know what is coming: part of the marl crops out and offers you a glimpse of what you can discover if you take one of the paths away from the Geul: quarries and marl.

The Geul is an idyllic stream that meanders considerably, or winds through the landscape. Because the Geul flows fast on this part, the water erodes the bank in the outer bends. In the inner bends, the water flows less fast and the sand and mud that has been carried along remains there. In the outer bends, there is a steep bank and in the inner bends a flat bank.

Beautiful path between marl and Geul...

Along the Geul you will repeatedly come across steep slopes made of marl, which has been mined in this region for hundreds of years and is also used in Häuserbai. With a bit of luck you can find fossils.

From many hilltops in Brunssummerheide there are great views and sometimes surprising views.
