December 8, 2023,Raeren Hike

Beautiful route with the exception of the long stretches along the Vennbahn (I have seen that now).
The stretch along the banks of the Inde in the Munsterwald was nice. A passage in the wrong place resulted in wet feet. Navigating the last part in the dark through meadows where there are no paths was a lot of fun.

With his own rating system, Mr.Pfade gave this beautiful tour an adventure factor of 7/10 points...a completely accurate classification, although I would even rate it one point higher (if you really want to stick to the route meticulously) because of certain things Crossing the meandering Inde is even more “adventurous” in spring when the Inde also contains meltwater.

June 26, 2022,Mr. Pfade: Abenteuertour Raeren

A, I think, very strange tour, very much, for Mr. Pfade tours, on wide and paved paths. Along the Inde it is fantastically beautiful, I find the paths that actually lead through cow meadows to be borderline, it doesn't bother me personally, but I could imagine that one or the other would go nuts. All in all, I'm not as …

Wow 🤩
What a great tour.
Apart from a few sections (unfortunately one of them was a bit longer) on the Vennbahnweg, I wasn't bored for a minute.
Varied, great paths through wonderful nature. Went off the path a few times because we couldn't see it and took the completely wrong path twice...that's an adventure too!
Highly recommended
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I started in Schmithof instead of Raeren. The path was partially blocked there, so I had to briefly take the Vennbahn cycle path. Parallel to this, you keep hiking on beautiful paths. Some sections lead across pastures - I didn't want to mess with around 200 cows 😂
On the way to Inde, you walk around 2 km along the …
