One of the most beautiful cycling routes in Germany runs from Aachen to Trier, through valleys and old train tunnels. You can find one of those rail tunnels here, just before Kyllburg. That means: light on and cycle.

July 13, 2026,(Kyll-Radweg) – Blick auf Schloss Malberg Runde von Matzen

Unfortunately, I had to turn back due to several fallen trees and took an alternative route. Some paths were overgrown 😟
Otherwise, it would have been a nice tour
