The cycle route network makes cycling in South Limburg even more fun. No maps on your handlebars or navigation systems, but clearly numbered intersections. Just follow the intersection numbers you write down on a small note. It's almost impossible to get lost, because the green and white signs can be found wherever you need them, no matter which way you go. The intersections have overview boards, so you will always have an overview and can easily change your route.
