Colmont, Rural hamlet in Voerendaal, Netherlands.

Colmont sits on the Plateau of Ubachsberg, featuring residential houses and farms constructed with local Kunradersteen limestone, creating a traditional Dutch countryside setting.

The name Colmont derives from Latin 'calvum montem' meaning bald mountain, and a Roman villa once stood on the Stockveld area west of the current settlement.

The Sint-Corneliuskapel, built in 1946 using Kunradersteen limestone, stands at a T-junction as a testament to the hamlet's peaceful liberation during World War II.

The hamlet contains 32 houses accommodating 85 residents and provides access to natural reserves including Vrouwenheide, Kunderberg, and Putberg through local roadways.

Panoramacamping Colmont holds the distinction of being the highest campsite in the Netherlands at 180 meters above sea level, offering 122 tourist camping spaces.
