September 26, 2025,🇧🇪_Eupen_Genusstour 24 Ostbelgien: „Wälder, Weser, Wasser“ Eupen 26.09.2025

Today I set out to hike the "24 Forests, Weser, Water Eupen" in Belgium.
I started in Eupen and headed straight up into the forest.

The capital of the German-speaking Community of Belgium boasts historical monuments, beautiful nature, and many baroque buildings dating back to the heyday of the cloth-making industry (17th and 18th centuries).

A pretty nice but unspectacular tour, unfortunately including 2 km of asphalt. But very nice considering the weather, and the nice refreshment stop was fun.

Marking: red rectangle.

"On the way to Lake Eupen, not that far from the city center, landscapes appear like those from the far north in Canada.

As soon as you turn your back on Eupen, the forest surrounds you in furious autumn colors. The wide hiking trail runs along the Weser, which feeds Lake Eupen upstream. We cross three …

Today we were on the pleasure tour 24 - forests, Weser water. The starting point was Eupen. We parked in the car park next to St. Joseph's Church. From here we walked along a wide hiking trail along the Weser to the dam of the Wesertal reservoir. There we had lunch and enjoyed the beautiful view of the reservoir from …

What a delightful tour - just right for a Sunday afternoon... started from a small car park through the forest to the Weser dam. From there on a nice forest path to Eupen. Short break at the Weser Pavilion - with Panda beer and freshly baked cake. Then back to the starting point. Happy tour, happy day 🤩

Parked at the large car park in Frankendelle, the specified one on the side of the road didn't appeal to us. At the start, the forest surrounds you in furious colors. The wide hiking trail runs along the Weser, which feeds Lake Eupen upstream and fir trees. Arrived at the dam there was a visitor center and a restaurant with …
