June 24, 2023,Fietstocht vanuit Irrel via wettlingen naar bitburger stausee en via bitburg terug
A few minor deviations along the way, follow the signs for the prum radroute and from bitburg nimsradweg, works fine. Surprisingly beautiful on the way there, many ascents / descents and forest. Way back much open field, more gradual in course.
