Discover the surrounding area of Hotel-Restaurant De Burghoeve in Valkenburg

If you have ever been to Limburg, you will know that it is very untypical of the Netherlands. The dazzlingly beautiful landscape, with its hills and valleys, reminds many people of holidays in Southern Europe. Cool, babbling brooks and delightful tracks and cycle paths can be found everywhere in this area.

Varied landscapes
The welcoming hills of Southern Limburg include the Vaalserberg - at 321 metres, it is the highest point in the Netherlands. Central Limburg has its green, water-rich Maas Valley, while Northern Limburg has the Peel and expansive woods and heaths. Together, they form a combination of varied landscapes unique in the Netherlands and make Limburg the province par excellence for tourism and recreation.

Beautiful sights and attractions
Many sights and attractions can be found in the immediate surroundings of the hotel. For example, a 17th-century water mill, the Schaelsberg with its hermitage, and a herb garden in the old Dutch style with hundreds of medicinal plants. From the hotel there are many routes by car or bicycle that take you past castles, mansions and famous country estates. Enjoyment fit for a prince!

Tips

• Visit the Netherlands' first officially accredited spa, 'Thermae 2000', where you can relax and recover your energy.
• For keen walkers there is the famous 'Peter Path' formerly followed by pilgrims - that runs close by Valkenburg and is still the ultimate challenge.
• For real runners or those who prefer to go cycling among nature, there are demanding routes over the Cauburg in Valkenburg or the St. Pietersburg near Maastricht.
• You can also drive out of the Netherlands to take a look at the Belgian Ardennes or visit Liëge or Aachen.
