Bleialf Tunnel

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

The Bleialfer Tunnel is a 400 meter long, disused railway tunnel of the Westeifelbahn. It is illuminated, but closed from November to March. During this time it serves as winter quarters for bats. Cyclists then have to use the bypass route over the ridge. Caution, altitude difference!

The bridge over the Our forms the border between Belgium and Germany. There is also a break area on each side.

Alfbach Valley

Highlight • River

The beaver valley mentioned here is actually the Alfbachtal, but that doesn't change the fact that beavers live here and that you cycle through beautiful nature.

A beautiful restored train with a small café on it.
There are sandwiches there.
Hence the name "Café Stullwerk"

On October 1, 1886, Ponsfeld received a railway connection with the opening of the section between Prüm and Bleialf. During the Second World War, the station was first destroyed and later rebuilt. But from the 1970s, passenger and later freight traffic on the line was discontinued. Today, a Köf II shunting locomotive produced by Deutz and a flat goods wagon are erected as a memorial at the former level crossing. The Köf II was in service with the DB from 1959 to 1984.

Very nice bike path can only be recommended. We parked in Prüm old train station and started from there. Great landscape and well-kept rest areas. The distance is not quite right in the tunnel, no GPS reception 😄

August 21, 2024,St. Vith - Prüm
Today, on the third day, we started again from St. Vith, on former railway lines to Prüm and back. As on the other days: excellent asphalted cycle paths, quiet, in the countryside, and cycling along many nature reserves. Temperature below 20 degrees, windy. The lovingly designed railway collection in Pronsfeld is worth seeing.

In the Prüm explosion disaster, an ammunition depot detonated on July 15, 1949, in the Calvary Hill, northwest of Prüm in the Eifel region. The cause of the explosion, which severely damaged the town and killed 12 people, was never determined. The crater, still visible today, is one of the largest man-made. A memorial cross on the Calvary Hill commemorates …
