Kempkes Veen

Highlight • Natural

Between the district of Heidhausen and the Amweißen Stein border, you drive on a road. Nevertheless, it is not a problem to ride a bike here. The road is Brit and paved.

De Keverberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Kessel is an old Maas village with a rich history. In 1869 they found a Roman stone of the gods when they demolished an old church. This stone was dedicated to Minerva, Hercules and Juno. The remains of an old villa have also been excavated in Kessel-Eik. A late Roman iron helmet with a Christ monogram was even discovered in Kessel, which can now be seen in the Center Céramique in Maastricht. They also found a large copper kettle in Kessel, now in the Limburgs Museum in Venlo.

Very nice paths on both sides of the Maas. Worth seeing is the monastery village of Steyl and the towns of Kessel and Baarlo with some sights and many nice places to stop for refreshments. We went back on beautiful paths through the Brachter forest.
