ケスフェルト周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The Our is a 96 km long tributary of the Sauer along the border between Belgium and Germany. The Vennbahn crosses the national borders several times in this area. The landscape in the valley of the Our is simply beautiful and you can't get enough of it.

Two old tunnels: one for bats, the other for us :) It's fun to drive through and in summer it's also a nice way to cool off. Right in front of the tunnel there's a nice little viaduct that's no longer in use.

Very impressive how the red brickwork of the remains of the bridge almost protrudes into the cycle path.

Beautiful little river with picturesque views of the surrounding area.

Beautiful railway path. One of the most beautiful I know.

In the area of Hemmeres, the now disused Vennbahn ran for a length of 1134 m on the east side of the Our. The Vennbahn's infrastructure was badly damaged in the Second World War, including when the Our Valley Viaduct north of Hemmeres was blown up by German troops on September 27, 1944. When the town was reintegrated into Germany in 1958[2], the railway line in the Hemmeres area also returned to the Federal Republic. -Wikipedia

It is not without reason that the Vennbahn is a highlight among cycling enthusiasts, enjoy it from start to finish, with regular information boards, rest areas... Best to do in spring or autumn because of the views.

08.05.24 Bleialf tunnel closed due to construction work. No signage due to diversion. A worker showed us the way towards Prüm: a climb of about 500 m at 8-10%. No one could tell us when the work would be finished. What a pity.
