This is how the hike in the German-Belgian border region is described. And indeed, the varied hike has a lot to offer: heathlands, moss-covered forests, and colorful flower meadows. A largely wild landscape.

The route led mostly along small forest and root-covered paths beside the streams Eschbach, Steinbach, and Weser, mostly through Belgian territory, before returning to Roetgen.
To finish off the day, we stopped for refreshments together in Roetgen.

Beautiful hike!! Unfortunately, the wooden bridge is currently destroyed, but you can still change banks when the water level is low.
Unfortunately, the number of kilometers of 20km is not correct; the route has a map error. Overall, the route is "only" about 16km long - but it's definitely worth it.
