Valkenburg has many great sights to see and different Valkenburg transportation methods to help you get to them. There are several opportunities available to you while you visit the city of Valkenburg.

Have a Train Ride

Valkenburg’s station is located approximately 10 walking minutes from the centrum. The station actually claims to be the oldest operating one in all of the Netherlands. It features a historic exterior, but the inside has a modern appearance. If you wish to go to Maastricht, one of the great cities in the country, it‘s about a 30-minute train ride from Valkenburg. Trains run regularly throughout the day, with an approximate costs of 5-6 Euros round trip per person.

Bring your Feet to Land by Walking

Valkenburg, along with the surrounding attractions, is small and can easily be explored on foot. Since the centre is closed for all other kinds of traffic, most visitors just park their cars and start walking. While you’re walking through Valkenburg, you’ll notice directions are easy to follow, and black signs are everywhere to show you the way to the various attractions. Getting lost in this town is nearly impossible.

Let your Legs Work With Bicycling

Due to  the hilly terrain, the city and surrounding area are ideal for biking enthusiasts and makes a great form of Valkenburg transportation. In fact, the city has been the host of UCI Road Cycling World Championship four times, as well as a stage finish in the Tour De France in 1992 and 2006. Since driving isn’t possible in many areas of Valkenburg and walking may take too long for some people, biking is a great alternative.
