Eurode Route KR9 Kerkrade

Eleven Euroderoutes run in the vicinity of Kerkrade, in and around the former mining town and with interesting detours through the pleasant German village of Herzogenrath.

Eurode Route K9 is such a walking route, which shows you the most beautiful locations in this area. You will see the Rolduc monastery and the surrounding bosquet, where celandine teems in spring and where ducks inhabit the ponds.

You will discover the historic railway line Het Miljoenenlijntje and see the tower of Burg Rode towering high above the district. If you want to enjoy your coffee or lunch break in a special setting, you can go to the monastery brasserie De Kanunnik, in Rolduc Abbey.

You will always find a parking space in the spacious car park in front of Rolduc. This route is not signposted, but the route description can be downloaded.
