The province of Limburg is known for its beautiful landscape with castles, green hills, picturesque villages and great hiking and biking facilities. The green hills in the south, a large area of water land at its heart, the scenic countryside of Peel and Maas, and the marshes and dunes in the north.
Limburg’s multi-faceted landscape – woodland, peat moorland, sand dunes and marl plateaux – offers endless opportunities for the active holidaymaker. The extensive cycle network, ferries across the River Maas and delightful mountain bike trails are all waiting to be enjoyed. The numerous marked trails passing by nature reserves and areas of outstanding natural beauty are a gift for hikers and cyclists alike who can pause to admire some of the most beautiful areas of Limburg.
Limburg offers a taste of the good life – its shopping, fine dining, and wealth of tourist attractions, coupled with the locals’ warm hospitality, will make your visit an experience to remember.
