Attraction

Natuurtransferium Biesenhof

Just at the foot of the Sweikhuizerberg, in the beautiful surroundings of the Geleenbeek valley and the Stammenderbos, you will find the Nature Transferium Biesenhof. This typical Limburg square farm has a rich history.

The first surviving documents date from 1259 and mention the sale of a building with land to the Teutonic Order. Not much later, the Teutonic Knights established a commandery here. In addition to a spiritual task, this also had a military function.

The 750-year-old farm has been completely restored and now features a restaurant, brasserie and winter garden. Here you will find all the ingredients for a varied day out: nature, culture, good food, folklore and monuments.

The area is one of the most beautiful walking areas in South Limburg. Various walking routes, such as the Pieterpad, cross the walking areas. The nature around the Geleenbeek has been completely redesigned under the name Corio Glana. From the nature transferium, walk downstream to the center of Sittard or upstream to Benzenrade in Heerlen.

It is also possible to mountain bike here via the Windraak route or to cycle via the international cycling junction network. The nature transferium Biesenhof can be reached by following the cycling nodes from 37 to 114 (the transferium is located on the other side of the track) or by entering Biesenweg 1 in Geleen in the navigation system.
