As a hiker, you can enjoy the breathtaking nature to the fullest in the middle of the beautiful landscape in the Geuldal . This walk leads you along the fast-flowing Geul and various beautiful flora and fauna. The Romans were already familiar with this fertile soil. They saw the Geuldal as a favorable location on the edge of the Via Belgica . Valkenburg is therefore very proud of the physical evidence, the found foundations of an old watchtower and nothing less than the remains of the Via Belgica itself. A special surprise on the route is the exact replica of the underground Roman catacombs . The tour follows the route of the Via Belgica past the impressive Château St. Gerlach and other monumental gems
