For the Maastricht Region, tourism is an important source of income. Maastricht, the Heuvelland region and the increasing range of large-scale attractions and events means that the region is becoming a more popular destination.
The Maastricht Region has various well-known and famous tourist and leisure facilities.
Pinkpop, SnowWorld, various golf courses and Camille Oostwegel Château Hotels & Restaurants are national ‘brands’. GaiaPark is the best small zoo in the Netherlands and Woonboulevard Heerlen is the largest home furnishings complex in Europe. In addition to these attractions, which are particularly popular among day trippers, the region also has splendid scenery, a characteristic culture (with special events) and a rich cultural and historical past (which is evident from various places of interest).
Tourism and leisure in the Maastricht Region are therefore important and expanding growth sectors. A great deal has been invested in recent years and with demonstrable success. Parkstad Limburg, in particular, has many investment projects and plans for expansion with regard to leisure, adventure and business.
