The Dutch Mountain Trail
20 June 2023For anyone opting for a staycation this summer there is a real Dutch Mountain Trail and it is nowhere less than in South Limburg. Put on your walking shoes and be stunned by the scenery.
For the most part, The Netherlands is 'as flat as a pancake', but in the south the land starts to rise and fall. With a lenght of 101 kilometres, the Dutch Mountain Trail takes in all Seven Summits (plus the highest point in the Netherlands) starting with Wilhelminaberg in Landgraaf and ending with D'n Observant in Maastricht. With far-reaching views taking in the Eifel in Germany, the Ardennes and the Kempen in Belgium, as well as lower lying lands of the Rhine Basin and the Maas valley to the north.
There is now an English edition of the guide with a detailed description of the 4 sections and the 7 separate summit walks plus lots of practical information and background info.
