Grenspark Jeker & Maas
Hiking with steep sections over fields and through the small nature reserve Heyoule. This beautiful area is known for its flower-rich calcareous grasslands.
Extensive description CloseBeautifully situated in the valley of the Jeker, you will find a charming village named Eben-Emael. Here, the Jeker has carved its way to Maastricht, where it flows into the Maas. Besides marl, silex has been mined in the Jekervallei for centuries. The museum in the striking tower of Eben-Ezer outlines the history of this. But Eben-Emael is, of course, best known for its fort.
