The main characters of this tour through the eastern part of Belgium: the young Our and the Vennquerbahn between Honsfeld and the German border village of Losheim. Almost 45 varied and quite challenging kilometers await you.
Starting from the starting point, you cycle the first nine kilometers near the German border along the watershed between the Maas and Moselle-Rhine basin. This is where the Our rises - you follow it for a short stretch.
Along the way, you will repeatedly enjoy wonderful views of the hills and valleys of the region. You cycle through a sparsely populated area, seeing only a few ancient villages along the way.
Shortly before the end of the tour in Herresbach, the Wood Eye wooden platform offers you a clear view of the Our valley and the many wind turbines on the German side. You can take a break on the bench, then complete the loop and cycle back to your starting point.
