Hairpin bend on the Vennbahn in Parc naturel des Hautes-Fagnes – Eifel

Highlight • Cycleway

This hairpin road invites you to make a stop. The cycle path here follows the railway line for a while. Also pay attention to metal crossbars.

Kalterherberg Station

Highlight • Cafe

Take the railbike to Sourbrodt. Nice leisure activities at the Kalterherberger Hauptbahnhof. With a trolley, today they are called rail bikes, you can go for 30 euros per trolley after a briefing on a seven-kilometer route.

The vehicles can accommodate up to four adults and at least two drivers are required to get around. As it is not possible to overtake on the railroad tracks, it starts at a pleasant pace in the direction of Sourbrodt, where, in addition to the driving pleasure, you can soon enjoy the idyllic landscape of the High Fens. When, at a certain speed, the typical chattering of the rail vehicles can be heard, the pleasure of driving does not just start for hobby railroaders.

Vennbahn Cycle Path (RAVeL L48) – Hautes Fagnes – Eifel Nature Park

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A fairly beautiful section of the Vennbahn cycle path runs here partly along the trolley track through the Venn.

The Vennbahn Cycle Path is one of the longest cross-border railway cycle paths in Europe and meanders from Germany through Belgium to Luxembourg.

Today, the rest of the catch was supposed to be the wildebeest. We drove to Monschau and had the brilliant idea of driving the rest of the way on the Vennbahn. No great elevation gain, easy to manage. The brain says the body is determined. After two hours uphill (towards Belgium) I was frozen to the tips of my fingers. …

Forget everything you've ridden on railway cycle routes so far. The Vennbahn Cycle Route surpasses them all. I absolutely have to ride the entire route.
