Day 1: discover the Limburg landscape
09:00 Explore the surroundings
What's the first thing you do when you arrive at your holiday address? Check in and explore the surroundings. As check-in times are not until later in the afternoon, this is a great opportunity to explore the area. There is plenty to see and experience in the Heart of Limburg. From castles and ruins to breathtaking nature, from cosy shopping streets to beautiful expositions and exhibitions.
12:30 Lunchtime
All that exploring makes you hungry. Whether you want tasty soup of the day, sandwiches prepaired with fresh local products or a delicious omelet, there are plenty of lunchrooms in the area to enjoy a sumptuous meal. After coffee or tea, it's time to hit the road again because there is still so much to do!
14:00 Along the waterfront
You wouldn't expect it but Hart van Limburg is home to the largest continuous water sports area in the Netherlands. Now autumn is not really suitable for water sports but did you know that there are wonderful hiking and cycling routes along the water? Walk and cycle along the Maasplassen and enjoy the unique nature and spectacular views.
18:00 Dinner and evening out
Time to get ready for an evening out. First of all, you'll have a culinary bite to eat, of course. Because you have earned that after such a busy day. After dinner, you can choose between different activities. Catch a film at the cinema or visit a theatre performance. Or just have a drink in one of the many cosy bars and pubs that can be found here.
23:00 Bedtime
After an exhilarating first day in Limburg, it's time to close your eyes and recharge your batteries for the days ahead. Are you a camper or would you rather go for a hotel, B&B or a cottage at a holiday park? Or maybe you want to spend the night in a very special place like a yurt or a tree house. It's all possible here in Limburg. Even sleep in a real castle!
Enjoy the autumn
Day 2: go on (shop)safari!
08:00 Walk through a unique terraced landscape
Today is an early rise as it promises to be a full day. After breakfast, it's time to explore Limburg's Big Five. The Big Five are five special nature reserves in the region. For example, go for a walk along the beautiful stream valleys of the Leudal nature reserve or explore the unique nature on the banks of the river Meuse in Rivierpark Maasvallei. Each area is unique and definitely worth exploring.
14:30 Shopping
Shopping should definitely be high on your list when visiting Hart vanLimburg! With the Designer Outlet Roermond as its vibrant centre, this is a true Valhalla for the shopper. Not only Roermond offers excellent shopping, but also Weert, Venray and Panningen are perfect for you. And how do you end a successful shopping afternoon? Exactly, with a delicious bite to eat!
20:30 Enjoy the cozy atmosphere
With the days getting cooler and shorter again, it's time again for hot chocolate with whipped cream by a cozy fireplace. Still want to enjoy the fresh air outside? Often terraces have blankets or heat lamps, but of course you can still go inside.
Cool for kids
Day 3: fun activities when it rains
09:00 Breakfast and an indoor activity
After yesterday's busy day, the alarm clock rings a little later today. First of all, you take your time for a sumptuous breakfast before heading off for a fun indoor activity. In autumn, it can be quite bleak outside, but not to worry as there is plenty to do here even when it rains. For example, go for a swim in one of the (subtropical) indoor pools that can be found here or compete with each other in a game of bowling or try to escape from an escaperoom.
14:00 Going out by bike
Meanwhile, it stopped raining and a watery sun started shining. In short, a fine afternoon to get out and about by bike. Hart van Limburg is ideal for exploring by bike. An excellent network of junctions makes it very easy to put together your own cycling route based on the places you would like to see. You can also choose from one of the many beautiful cycling routes we have already put together for you. Stop for dinner at one of the restaurants you encounter along the way.
20:30 Finish your stay with a drink
The last evening it is time to pack your suitcase and end your getaway in Hart van Limburg with a delicious drink in the hotel bar or in the cottage where you are staying. Look back on your few days in Limburg with satisfaction and start planning your next visit to this beautiful region.
