THE CRUISING AREA

Our harbour "van der Laan" in Maasbracht is an excellent starting point for various cruises for your holiday. Depending on the time available and your personal taste. You will find peace and relaxation in the extensive nature reserve where wild Konik horses and cattle are grazing. 

Maastricht offers quality gastronomy and culture heading south along the Zuid Willemsvaart, where you can moor in the historic city harbour. Liège, long a commercial and cultural centre in the French-speaking part of Belgium, invites you to eat delicious waffles, and along the leisurely meandering Meuse, interesting sights await discovery in Namur, Dinant and the north of France.

On the Willemsvaart, you can explore magnificent historic sites such as Rekem, voted the most beautiful village in Flanders in 2010, and the old garrison town of Leopoldsburg. The designer outlets in the village of Maasmechelen offer great shopping opportunities. From the small transit harbours you can connect to the famous cycle path network. Relax with one of the countless Belgian beers in one of the many waterfront terrace cafés.

Our base is located in the middle of the Meuse Lakes area, which with 3000 hectares of water surface is the largest connected water sports area in BENELUX. Heading north, you can reach Zeeland or Friesland in two to three days. The bishop's town of Roermond with its designer outlet and many small boutiques, cafés and restaurants as well as the marina Oolderhuuske with its Mediterranean ambience are highlights along the route. Continuing towards Venlo, you will reach the Leukermeer and the Mooker Plassen, among other places, as well as Willemstad, Breda, Heusen or even further into Friesland.

And to the south, in the Belgian provinces of Limburg, Liège, Antwerp, Flemish Brabant and Walloon Brabant, cities such as Antwerp, Mechelen, Leuven, Brussels and Charleroi on the Sambre River await you with a multifaceted kaleidoscope of cultural and culinary highlights.

Whether you are guided by one of our suggested cruises or simply want to find out more - we hope you enjoy reading this brochure and have a wonderful holiday on our Abuela.
