The best city hikes and walks in Hillenraad Boshei Nieuwenhof

Very beautiful city on the Meuse with a lot of water around, great cityscape, I liked it very much.

Venlo is a great city where you can discover a lot.

It is so pathetic when everyone creates more highlights for already existing highlights and Komoot gets cluttered like this. The same applies to photos like with this highlight, which have nothing to do with the actual highlight. In the past, you could delete these photos via Komoot, but nowadays it just clutters the highlight and no one benefits from it anymore. Think about it!

A particularly beautiful section of forest on the Schwalm in spring. Thousands of wood anemones bloom there. (depending on the weather, approx. mid-March - early April)

The Vismarkt (Fish Market) in Roermond is one of the oldest and most characteristic places in the historic city center. As the name suggests, this square was traditionally the center of the fish trade, a logical consequence of Roermond's location on the Roer and Meuse rivers. The Vismarkt is therefore a direct reminder of a time when water and trade were inextricably linked. The square is located a short distance from the river and was part of the city's economic heart. Here, fishermen, traders, and residents gathered to trade fresh fish, but also to exchange news and socialize. The proximity of the water ensured that fish could be delivered quickly, making the Vismarkt a vibrant and important hub in daily city life. Over the centuries, the Vismarkt's function changed, but the square retained its central role. Today, it is an atmospheric urban space with historic buildings, restaurants, and terraces. Its original commercial function has given way to a place for meeting and relaxing, but its name and location continue to evoke the past.

The ROER Mouth sculpture on Stationsplein in Roermond is a contemporary artwork that symbolically references the city's identity and location. The sculpture's name is a play on words: Roer refers to the river that flows through the city, while "mond" represents the place where this river ultimately flows into the Meuse River. Together, they represent Roermond as a city of water, encounters, and transitions. The artwork is placed on Stationsplein, a logical and meaningful location. For many visitors, this square is the first point of contact with Roermond and a point of arrival where travelers enter the city, where movement, departure, and arrival are central. The ROER Mouth sculpture serves as a visual welcome and a landmark that immediately tells a story about the city. In form and appearance, the sculpture is modern and accessible. It invites interpretation and reflection without being literal. This allows it to integrate into the public space, allowing passersby to experience the artwork without pausing, but those who do discover a deeper layer of meaning. It connects language, place, and landscape in a single image. The ROER Mond sculpture thus emphasizes the special relationship between Roermond and the water. It recalls the historical role of the rivers in trade and development, but also their contemporary significance as a landscape and cultural element. As a work of art at a busy intersection, it offers a contemporary interpretation of the story of Roermond, a city created and shaped by water, where roads and people converge.

Brasserie Entree on the Markt in Venlo is a contemporary restaurant that has secured a permanent place in the vibrant heart of the city. Situated on one of Venlo's most lively squares, the brasserie is a natural meeting place for both residents and visitors. The combination of the historic market square and a modern, accessible atmosphere makes Entree a place where urban dynamism and relaxation converge. The interior and terrace reflect the character of the Markt: open, inviting, and focused on connection. Brasserie Entree acts as a kind of extension of the square where people gather for coffee, lunch, dinner, or a moment of peace while shopping or strolling through the city center. The rhythm of the city is always palpable here, with views of market days, events, and daily life. The name Entree speaks volumes. The brasserie is perceived as a gateway to Venlo: a place where you arrive, meet, or simply take a break. Its central location makes it a logical starting or ending point for a visit to the city and a recognisable anchor point in the urban space.
