Destination Dilsen-Stokkem

A rural town on the banks of the river Maas, Dilsen-Stokkem lies in the lovely province of Belgian Limburg. Dilsen-Stokkem is not only situated on the border of the Netherlands and Belgium; beyond the town, the low fertile ‘Maasvlakte’ merges into the sandy ‘Kempisch Plateau’, which gradually becomes steeper and steeper. This makes for a beautiful varied green landscape. So it is not surprising that the ‘Maasland’ around Dilsen-Stokkem is ideal for biking and hiking holidays. You can take long bike rides along clearly marked routes. You'll discover the four castles the town boasts, and ride through charming villages and delightful countryside, over roads that are flat and often empty of cars as well. You can even cross the river Maas on a ferry and continue your route on the Dutch side.

Hikers love the Hoge Kempen National Park. There used to be mines here and gravel was extracted. The drabness of that time has been replaced by abundant flora and fauna, huge water features and superb views from the top of the old slag heaps. Perhaps retail therapy is more up your street? The Outlet Center of Maasmechelen Village is just a stone's throw away - boutique after boutique with the best-known brands. And of course you can jump in the car and go to Maastricht (NL) or Aachen (DE). Both are destinations with cosy terraces, varied culture and great shopping streets.

Situated in Dilsen-Stokkem on the edge of the Hoge Kempen National Park, the Terhills Resort is a green oasis full of diversity where you'll enjoy a wonderful holiday with the whole family. It's here where you can switch between nature and adventure. Stay in a stylishly furnished VIP and Exclusive cottage full of luxury and ease, and you can even choose for a panoramic view out over the lake. Rental boat at your own jetty: what more could you want? At a short walk from the resort, there's action as well as relaxation to enjoy. At Cablepark Terhills you can go waterskiing or wake boarding, and you can get soaking wet on the challenging water course at Aquapark Terhills. Need some me-time? Then Elaisa Wellness is a must. Ancient world cultures reveal their wellness secrets with baths and body treatments.
