August 28, 2023,GV: De Groene Valleien - Dag 15 - Van Vaals naar Saint-Nicolas

The last ride started immediately with the climb to the highest point in the Netherlands and the three-country point. In total we have been barely 5 km in the Netherlands. To drive to Liège, we again chose the Ravel, which is more winding and steep than the Vennbahn. Again we escaped rain. And after Herve or about 30 km it …

July 13, 2024,1. Etappe nach Paris: Aachen Lüttich

Shortly after 11 a.m. we set off from Aachen main station, first to the highest mountain in the Netherlands and then on the Ligne 38 through northern Wallonia to Liège. The nice thing about the route is that it feels like it's almost always downhill, especially the last loops before Liège, and you wonder where you got all that up. …

April 23, 2022,3🇩🇪🇳🇱🇧🇪🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️Teil 1: Aachen - Lüttich

The route Ravel 39 and 38 is really great! 👍
Smoothly tarred all the way! 😉
Up to Herve also super scenic. After that, the industrial past of the Liège area cannot be overlooked 😉
Downtown is nice too, we'll explore further now!

Cycling along the railway line instead of taking the train: in Liège we hung onto the RAVeL Ligne 38/39 and rode through the beautiful Herver Land. To top it all off, to the border triangle, and then roll to the train station in Aachen.
