Nice bike path, somehow I don't find the surface in Germany as good as in Belgium.

Still a nice bike path.

The Vennbahn Cycle Path is a cross-border long-distance cycle path between Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg, which follows the route of the Vennbahn, which was created in Prussia's time and was shut down and dismantled from 2002, over around 130 km from Aachen through the Hohes Venn-Eifel Nature Park and the Ardennes to Troisvierges. : Ulflingen) runs. It is part of the RAVeL network (French: Réseau Autonome de Voies Lentes), which is a network of paths for hikers, horse riders and cyclists in Wallonia in Belgium and was launched in October 1995. In the German-speaking area, the hiking and cycling trail was given the name Vennbahn and is classified as a premium cycle trail over its entire length.

The railway line, cycle and hiking trail is also used by numerous skaters and the neighboring communities are hoping for an increase in local tourism in the future. This is supported by the fact that some former train station buildings have already been converted into service areas, hotels and guesthouses are geared towards day tourists and local public transport makes so-called bicycle buses available for commuting. In the course of 2013, seven small steel houses were built between Roetgen and Kalterherberg in the appearance of a "lost wagon", which are intended as weather protection or rest areas.[4]

In the area of Wallonia z. Some of the railway shelters that still exist have been preserved and sometimes lovingly cared for (see Faymonville).
