Biking through the national park

Limburg and cycling are a match made in heaven. This trip begins at Limburg’s famous cycling network and travels 40 kilometres through the stunning Hoge Kempen National Park.

By Maasmechelen Village

Choose to bring your own bicycle, rent one at the Fietsparadijs Limburg or start your journey from the comfort of the Terhills Hotel where you can add one to your reservation. For those less accustomed to long-distance cycling, e-bikes are also available to lighten the load.

From Maasmechelen Village, follow the blue junctions: 60 > 61 > 550 > 252 > 251 > 534 > 535 > 565 > 41 > 565 > 551 > 60 > 55.

  • 60: stop off at the Mechelse Heide gateway and soak up the sights.
  • 61 > 550: pass by Kikbeekbron Valley – a beautiful nature reserve undiscovered even by Limburg’s locals.
  • 41: arrange a pit stop at As station and visit The Yard – a collection of disused train carriages which have been given a new lease of life by a graffiti artist collective.

The end is almost in sight. Enjoy more than 40 kilometres of breathtaking scenery as you ride back to Maasmechelen Village and reward yourself with a glass of fresh homemade lemonade from Le Pain Quotidien. Cheers!
