The municipality of Roerdalen consists of 6 larger villages and several smaller hamlets. During this route you will get to know all the villages and various hamlets.
The municipality connects its name to the river "de Roer", the silver ribbon that runs through the whole municipality and the river that you will see and pass several times during the route.
