Cycle racing South Limburg

The hilly landscape of South Limburg around Gulpen and Schin-op-Geul is a paradise for cyclists. Conquer the Dutch 'cols' like the vicious Keutenberg and Cauberg. Or climb calves like the Kruisberg and Gulperberg. For less experienced cyclists there are many nice routes over moors and through valleys. Many climbs in this area are part of the course of the Amstel Gold Race which is held here every year in April. Since 2005 Valkenburg is the starting point of this cycling classic and since 2017 the finish is in Berg en Terblijt.
