Local events
In and around De Gulperberg, in addition to beautiful nature, views and charming villages, there is also plenty to do in terms of events! Throughout the year, numerous fun activities and festivals are organised for young and old. Here you will find an overview of events in the area (if they are taking place soon).
Everyday people
The "Alltagsmenschen," as the images are also called, radiate warmth, humor and recognition. Placed in everyday situations, they bring a smile to the faces of passersby. Stroll through the streets of Valkenburg and discover the various photogenic scenes that can be found here and there. From a group of friends having a nice dinner to a couple dancing intimately, each image tells a story and invites interaction
