The Route

Road routeโ€ƒโŸฒ90kmโ€ƒโ‡—700m

Gravel routeโ€ƒโŸฒ95kmโ€ƒโ‡—790m

The greatest circle of Limburg - Enjoy a delightful ride over the green hills in the southernmost tip of the Netherlands.

An iconic loop, hand-plotted to perfection into a super fun, bike-friendly route full of beautiful highlights โ€” and a unique circle on the map. ๐Ÿšดโ€โ™‚๏ธโœจ

To put this rondo on the map, make sure to properly apply some cream to your calves! In this incredibly varied route, you'll secretly face quite a bit of elevation gain.

Starting from Maastricht, we dive into the hilly countryside and after conquering, among others, the Loorberg near Epen and the forests around Vijlen, we touch the Belgian border to the south. Then we head north and flirt with Germany, where we even sneak across the border twice. Through Landgraaf and Heerlen, you cycle over the beautiful Brunssummerheide, and then gradually descend along the Maas via Geleen and the Julianakanaal. After about 90km on the pedals, you reach the point where you started. The circle is complete! Time for a well-deserved piece of pie!

Narrow tires? That works perfectly! The route is entirely on paved roads, with about 100m of gravel.

Gravel bike? Take the gravel variant with an additional 33km of unpaved/gravel sections.
