Arcen's picturesque town center offers plenty of places to stop for a bite to eat and many beautiful Limburg houses. A visit during the week is recommended, as it gets very busy on weekends when the weather is nice.

The Maasduinen are a very beautiful and well-maintained nature reserve with a variety of trails. The small but charming town of Arcen, …

If you want to see more, you can …
