Beautiful and Educational trip trough the history and origination of the hills in Limburg. Turns out this used to be mosasaur territory and the holes formed when the prehistoric seas dried out. Then, way way later, about 300 years ago, the hills were a great supplier of various resources for the towns people, they even grew vegetables!

Interesting place to see how they made alot out of the "mergel" ( aka limestone). Also in the village itself you can see a lot of buildings made off it. Also very cool was that you could sculpt your own little figure inside it. Also they merged a little Dino expo in it wich makes it even more interesting for the little ones

Very nice place to visit with kids there is a tour where the kids leave in an educational and playful way a lie of the local history. All the local mining great explained and a lot of information about dinosaurs. The kids can search for remaining of dinosaurs, they will find thoots of ancient sharks in the ground. What also very funny to do is to carve a piece of soft stone into your favourite designs. The kids can bring that to home of they like. Since valkenburg is a very touristic city parking can be challenging even while there is a parking at tbe the opposite side of the road. Don't worry. Valkenburg is a small place so tbe other parking are at walking distance we had a very good afternoon with the kids over here.

What an amazing day trip. I would recommend for anyone with children to visit here. They take covid into account properly and the staff is super friendly. It’s a unique experience in one of the few rocky area’s in the Netherlands.

Awesome experience! Very fun to be walking around a few feet underground and learning a thing or two about how the mineworkers got to work there. There's plenty to learn about dinosaurs (although some information is a bit outdated). The sculptures in the walls made by university students, about ten years ago, and on the displays are absolutely amazing to look at and there's some interactivity as well! You can carve out your own piece of rock and there's a section where you get to draw on the walls (if you dare to enter as it is dark and spooky!). Definitely recommended. It is quite the walk up the hill from Valkenburg, so I recommend leaving on time. Sometimes if you're a little earlier that's okay too.
