    The Vennradweg leads from Aachen Rote Erde via Monschau over St. Vith to Ulfingen. All in all, there are 180 kilometers of the best developed bike path. In the Büttgenbach area you can change to the Kylltal route and drive to Stadtkyll. From there by train to Trier or Cologne. Since it is a former railway line, the slopes are moderate.

      The Vennbahnradweg is a cross-border long-distance cycle path between Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg, which follows the route of the Vennbahn, which was created at the time of Prussia and is now the former Vennbahn, over around 130 km from Aachen through the Hohes Venn-Eifel nature park and the Ardennes to Troisvierges (German: 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 German-speaking countries, the hiking and cycling trail was given the name Vennbahn and is classified as a premium cycle trail in its entirety.

      The cycling and hiking trail is popular with numerous cyclists, skaters and hikers, 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 provides so-called bicycle buses for shuttle transport. 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.

        On the beautiful Vennbahn cycle path, this is a very nice opportunity for a break. Seating, food and drink will be provided.

              Here in the station there is an old wagon that serves as a café, and a railbike also departs from there.

                Great to get make progress, but I find it quite dull after 10 km. So if you are like me, take some "shortcuts" over the hills or go for other highlights along the path and then you will be happy to be back on the Vennbahn for some km ;)
