Route UNESCO - Etape 10 de Waimes à Raeren

The Vennbahn running through the Eifel region in Germany and the breathtaking landscapes of the Hautes Fagnes offers a magnificent cycling journey. This greenway, rich in history, is a former railway line. After departing from Weywertz, the slope climbs gently. Shortly after crossing the Warche, you ascend the Vennbahn without much difficulty. At Sourbrodt, you discover the old Prussian-style station. It was once a bustling place: the numerous tracks brought goods from Germany and leave pass holders from the Elsenborn military camp. The signal box, long platforms, and old wagons give an idea of the importance of this railway junction. The line crosses the heart of Wallonia's green lung: the Hautes Fagnes nature reserve! You reach Kalterherberg and head towards Monschau. The two large bends finally bring you to Raeren and its typical castle.
