On this tour, we again notice the close juxtaposition of things that have been developed and that are in the making, of cycling and hiking trails and, time and again, of well-frequented, but hardly recognizable paths. Perhaps this time the signage did not quite meet the very high expectations that our

After a leisurely coffee in the hotel, we actually only wanted to take a few more steps by the lake, maybe until the evening sun shone so beautifully on the way.
This time, however, we managed a lot more distance than planned and lapped it, very fast for our standards! the Bütgenbacher See.
It is a dam

In the High Fens you are generally not allowed to take dogs with you, even on a leash. The Poleur Venn nature trail is an exception. It is accessible all year round and is flat and easy to walk on.
Is it easy to walk on? Merlin, our Mini Australian Sheperd, doesn't like the typical wooden walkways at

Kelmis is ugly. It is the location of our first hike on this vacation. The museum should be worthwhile, but it is closed on Mondays. The long, straight, traffic-calmed main street also has two discount grocery stores and a few car dealers to offer. And a gravel parking lot next to garbage containers

On the way home from Ostbelgien we stopped in Monschau.
What a downer after so much nature, at least for our taste: far too many people with cameras, too many attractions and too many trinkets. This "craft market" called tourist rip-off factory! Well, what exactly did we expect? We hurried past the sights
