August 10, 2023,Venn/ Eifel/Mosel Radweg Etappe 3: von Stadtkyll bis St Vith (Belgien 🇧🇪)🚴🏻🚴🏻‍♀️

Today there was a lot of history about the Quervennbahn and the Vennbahn (see information boards)
Otherwise a lot of grazing cattle and meadows and nothing special, just maybe the Freiherr von Korff viaduct 🤔
So ideal route for racing cyclists⚡️🚴🏻

Started in St. Vith and turned onto the RAVel 45 in Wames with the desire to see the Bütgenbach reservoir and the Worriken campsite.

At the fork, we turned right on the bike towards Büttgenbach. We took a short break there. We then continued past the dam to our next overnight …

Very varied.
You should plan a stop in Montenau and a visit to the ham smokehouse.
The route on the Venn Cycle Path and the Honfeld route to Bütgenbach are pure pleasure cycling.
The intermediate piece has a claim. E bike recommended.
