Meinweg National Park

The park extends across 1,800 hectares of forests, heathlands, fens, and stream valleys, featuring three distinct plateaus with the Beatrix Plateau reaching 80 meters.

The Rhine and Meuse rivers shaped the landscape over centuries through sediment deposits, while tectonic activities created the current terraced formations.

The park forms part of the German-Dutch border park Maas-Swalm-Nette, representing a cross-border cooperation in nature conservation between both countries.

Visitors can explore the park through an extensive network of walking trails, cycling paths, and horse riding routes that connect different ecosystems.

De Meinweg remains the sole location in Limburg province where native adder populations persist, leading to this snake's incorporation in the park's official logo.
