On the occasion of the Dutch Mountain Film Festival and entirely in the tradition of the Jubiläumswege in the Alps, the Dutch Mountain Trail has been plotted.
Although it is not the longest, it is certainly the toughest walk in the Netherlands, which may even compete with a serious trek in the real mountains. It is a rugged 101km hike that connects Seven Summits. The route consists of 4 sections and you will see no fewer than 7 mountain peaks.
It runs from Eygelshoven station (Kerkrade) to Maastricht station on a route where the real mountain feeling is never far away. Fast-flowing streams, (alpine) meadows, rock walls and of course spectacular views: they will challenge and delight you during this trail.
Please note, this route is not signposted. A special booklet is available from the Visit Zuid-Limburg Shops and Service Points. In the winter months the foot ferry at Eijsden is out of service and the last leg can only be walked via a detour via Belgium.
