    Cultural highlights, magical landscapes, and river valleys characterize this cycling route.  Between the Eifel beer metropolis Bitburg and the German-Luxembourg border, the way leads past typical Eifel villages with their own charm. Enjoy wonderful views over the Gutland and listen to the rushing of the rivers Nims and Sauer, which accompany you on part of the route.  Along the Nims cycle path, you can admire some sculptures made of Eifel sandstone lining the path. In spring, you can marvel at the blooming of the orchards.

    Author’s recommendation

    Visit the small but fine Hofcafe including art gallery "Creative Gallery - The Hofcafe" (open Sundays from 2 - 6 p.m). Enjoy a homemade piece of cake as well as delicious coffee specialties.
