The walking route runs from Eygelshoven to Maastricht and goes over the seven steepest and most striking mountain peaks in South Limburg. You walk around 20 km per day and along the way you see marl quarries, fruit trees, sunken roads, beautiful views, old churches and monasteries and you walk through Maastricht, Geuldal, Eijsden, Gulpen, Vaals and Kerkrade. Every day you will be brought to the starting point and picked up again at the end and taken to the campsite. Kim from Pippin Foods is here for you with her Food Truck with breakfast, lunch, dinner and delicious snacks and drinks. all inclusive. That will be great fun

The Dutch Mountain Trail

The Dutch Mountain Trail was created in 2020. This route was officially launched at the Dutch Mountain Film Festival in connection with the festival's tenth anniversary. It is regarded as one of the toughest route in the Netherlands because it passes over seven Dutch peaks. Fortunately, our peaks are not that high and you can walk over peaks of up to 323 meters (on the Vaalserberg). Nevertheless, you should not underestimate this hike and you will certainly feel your calves well on the mainly unpaved paths.

Today you are expected at the campsite between 10:30 and 11:00. Time for a cup of coffee and something sweet. After lunch we start with a short walk of about 12 km. Kim takes us to the starting point in Eygelshoven and we walk via the Wilhelminaberg (the first peak, 225 meters) via the Gaia Zoo to Kerkrade and end at Kasteel Wasserburg, Haus Heyden just across the German border. Kim takes us back to the campsite and we can prepare for a delicious dinner that Kim and Jan make from the Foodtruck / Mobile kitchen.
