Climbed as a more appropriate terminus of the Vennbahn from Aachen than the actual terminus 10km north in Troisvierges. Possibly my perception was distorted by the lovely autumn day and the mild sunshine, but I found it a wonderful experience: from the white castle at the foot via the steepest part past a special church to a narrow lane winding between the trees to the abbey of Clervaux. Meanwhile, swirling leaves transformed the road surface into a yellow-orange carpet. But I would venture to g... read more

Climbed as a more appropriate terminus of the Vennbahn from Aachen than the actual terminus 10km north in Troisvierges. Possibly my perception was distorted by the lovely autumn day and the mild sunshine, but I found it a wonderful experience: from the white castle at the foot via the steepest part past a special church to a narrow lane winding between the trees to the abbey of Clervaux. Meanwhile, swirling leaves transformed the road surface into a yellow-orange carpet. But I would venture to guess that it is a delightful slope in any season. (PS: At the time I was there, on 19 October 2025, there were works on the road surface near the church, on a flatter section just after the steepest bit, which meant I had to take the stairs for a while with the bike on my neck, along the right side of the church)

Beklommen als passender eindpunt van de Vennbahn vanuit Aken dan het eigenlijke eindpunt 10km noordelijker in Troisvierges. Mogelijk was mijn beleving vertekend door de heerlijke herfstdag en het milde zonnetje, maar ik vond het een schitterende ervaring: van het witte kasteel aan de voet via het steilste stukje voorbij een bijzondere kerk naar een smal baantje dat tussen de bomen naar de abdij van Clervaux kronkelt. Intussen toverden dwarrelende bladeren het wegdek om in een geeloranje tapijt. Maar ik zou durven denken dat het in elk seizoen een heerlijke helling is. (PS: Op het moment dat ik er was, op 19 oktober 2025, waren er werken aan het wegdek bij de kerk, op een vlakker gedeeltje vlak na het steilste stukje, waardoor ik even de trappen moest nemen met de fiets in de nek, langs de rechterkant van de kerk)
