Paddling near Venray, Limburg

Venray sits in North Limburg, a region of low-lying farmland and winding streams close to the Maas. The area's signature paddle route follows the Groote Molenbeek, a meandering stream running from Tienray to Wanssum — a relaxed flatwater trip through quiet nature where beavers and kingfishers are regularly spotted. The Maas itself, flowing nearby, adds further options for those on the water.
