This section is really highly recommended.
It offers top restored train stations, in Polch there is a great restaurant in it.
There are also two tunnel passages, viaducts, art and recreation areas with wide views of the Eifel.

Tunnel Hausen-1

Highlight • Structure

The eight-kilometer section starts at the east train station in Mayen, which can be reached by regional train. It lies on the route of the Eifelquerbahn. This runs every hour between Andernach on the left Rhine route and Kaisersesch. The route then leads in the district of Hausen with a slight incline into the Nette valley, which is bridged with the help of an approximately 40 meter high natural stone viaduct. The route runs along the route of the former Koblenz-Lützel - Mayen Ost railway line. Behind the viaduct over the Nette valley, it goes through the 252 m long Hausen-2 tunnel, which is followed by the Lehnener viaduct. With a length of 82 m, this only has a height of 8 m. Immediately afterwards follows the Hausen-1 tunnel with a length of 500 m. Both tunnels are illuminated. The route climbs slightly from the Nette valley and passes the village of Nettesürsch. The A48 motorway is then crossed with a slight downward gradient before the cycle path junction at the former Polch train station is reached.

July 24, 2024,Von Mayen einmal durch den Historischen Stadtkern und dann weiter über die Alte Bahnstrecke durch 2 Tunnels und Viadukte zurück. Startpunkt war der Nettoparkplatz. 👍🏻

Highly recommended. The old train station in Polch is particularly beautiful

In any case, I can recommend the detour to the pilgrimage church in Fraukirch near Thür. There is also a nice beer garden

May 11, 2024,Plaidt-Ochtendung über alte Bahntrasse Maifeld nach Polch, Kruft, Plaidt

This is a beautiful tour with a little road at the beginning. Then you cycle for a long time along the old Maifeld railway line, which is in a shady location and leads through hilly landscapes, but often also downhill. The Ochtendung beer garden was so impressive that we initially turned left onto the railway line. Unfortunately the beer garden …

September 15, 2024,Mayen / Runde mit Thürer Wiesen, der Nette, dem Vulkanpark- und Maifeld-Radweg

A lovely, varied tour of the Eifel with early autumn temperatures of 15°/16°.

Great cycle paths, everything from asphalted railway lines to single trails and meadow paths. The diversion at the Nette was quite a challenge, with short sections very steep ⚠️
