💡 Tips

  • Rent a bicycle to explore the rolling hills of South Limburg, which offer a uniquely non-flat Dutch landscape.

  • Take advantage of the local train station (served by Arriva) for quick day trips to Maastricht or Heerlen.
  • The weather can be quite changeable in the hilly region; layering your clothing is a smart choice.
  • Look out for the traditional half-timbered farmhouses (vakwerkboerderijen) scattered around the countryside.
