Location
A field near Heckhuscheid (Eifel).
Participants
Plans
After the trip to Belgium yesterday I had to get close enough to my home, that I can reach it in a single day. So I decided to go south and return to Germany. Unfortunately the hash was to far from any railway station, so I couldn't reach one today. The closest town was Prüm, so I decided to go there and get surprised how I will get home tomorrow.
Expedition
Well, there were 400 m of height that I could come down from the hash to Eupen yesterday. And it is clear what that means for today. Right, first of all I have to climb 400 meters. That did cost me almost exactly 2 hours. On the top I reached a big Venn area, so I had a break and took some pictures. 20 minutes later I reached the Vennbahn, another former railway track that had been turned into a cycle path. This time I just stayed on the track, when komoot told me not to, because I knew that it would lead me back there anyway. So I needed one and a half hour for the next 28 Kilometers. Then I've reached St. Vith and decided to have a break there. First I ate some cakes that I've bought in Eupen and then I had a delicious belgian beer. From here my path goes down to the valley of the Our, a rivulet that is the border between Belgium and Germany. I realized that fact when I suddenly came along a german sign. I must have crossed the border, but where? I turned back and came soon to the river that I've just crossed. There was an overgrown boundary-post. Yes, that must've been the border.
I had to climb another hill before I came close to the hash and I was really tired. There was a bench where I left my bike. The hash was on a harvested field, easy to reach. I wanted to make a break on the bench but it was in the sun and it was much to hot to feel comfortable. So I continued my ride. Soon I reached a very steep downhill and came out on another former railway track. The Eifel seems to be a paradise for biking (if you don't have to reach random points on hills). Prüm is a very small town with a very large cathedral. It was founded by the father of Charlemagne.
