It was raining when we decided to go there on a weekend, but it was still so nice to walk around the ruins that we decided to stay. You could take a lift up one of two floors if you want to avoid stairs. There's a restaurant adjacent also and you can enter the ruins through the restaurant. There's a handy app, if you're planning to visit it- download the app over wi-fi in advance so you can make the most of your visit (and can avoid mobile data charges). It took us about an hour to walk around and explore, although you could take longer to truly enjoy your visit.

Nice place to visit (and to get a view of Valkenburg from the top) but can be pricey for those without a museumkaart. We liked that the information board has artist impressions of what each section of the castle would have looked like. If reading information boards are not your thing, you can scan the QR code which will direct you to their website where you can play the audio guide (remember to bring your earphones along or you can purchase one from them for a few Euros)

It’s a good place to visit.. if you are interested in History then you must go for it. Additionally, you can enjoy queens view, and spectacular city view from here

A lovely place to visit. Fully automated ticket & entry system. Stunning views overlooking Oud-Valkenburg. Ideal for people who enjoy castle ruins. Bring some sandwiches and a drink, sit back and enjoy the view from one of the many benches.

Great indoor and outdoor experience. Rooftop cafe is ideal for snacks and coffee. 360 degree panoramic view is breathtaking. Underground parking is available nearby. Recommended for tourists.
