The Kalkoven bij Curfsgroeve is a dilapidated lime kiln from 1916, located in nature near Geulhem (South Limburg), near the former Curfsgroeve. In the past, marl was burned here into lime. The area is now a protected nature reserve with special animals and fossils. You can walk there via marked routes with beautiful views over the quarry. The place combines cultural history, geology and nature.

The former Jesuit monastery is located on the outskirts of Valkenburg, on the other side of the railway from the center. The currently abandoned and partially dilapidated complex is hidden from view by a dense tall thuja hedge.

Historic Center of Valkenburg

Highlight • Historical Site

The history of Valkenburg goes back to the Middle Ages. The Lordship (since 1357 County) of Valkenburg had its origins in Old Valkenburg at Genhoes Castle. For strategic reasons, the lords moved their seat to the Heunsberg, where the castle was built around 1075, today the ruins of Valkenburg.

Valkenburg on the Geul

Highlight • Settlement

Valkenburg has been one of the Netherlands' most important holiday destinations since around 1840, and tourism is the municipality's main source of income. This has much to do with the medieval town's picturesque location, but the extensive labyrinths of underground quarries also played an important role from the very beginning. However, the original idea of using the caves for air cures never came to fruition.

Cauberg

Highlight • Climb

Nice place to start (and end) all your routes. Both towards the Eifel, Belgium, Amstel Gold Race loops and Maastricht. Something for everyone
