The connecting route from Schönberg towards Our valley / Steinebrück with connection to the RAVeL cycle path network in East Belgium is a beautiful stage of about 10 kilometers length. The route leads away from road traffic through a splendid forest and meadow landscape with views of the Our valley. A visit to the village of Schönberg is definitely worthwhile, as visitors can enjoy not only a low mountain landscape with lots of nature but also numerous leisure activities such as minigolf, a leisure center for tourists, Nordic walking, a Lourdes grotto, and two inviting cafés with terraces. For guests in the holiday resort Schönberg, this extension offers an attractive opportunity for a bike trip to St.Vith or Burg-Reuland via the Vennbahn.
Author’s recommendation
In Schönberg there are very attractive leisure and dining options as well as an excellently equipped bike shop.

The connection from Schönberg is not a flat stage. Over the hill of Klein Bohlscheid, climbs and descents of up to 20% have to be mastered in both directions. Be especially careful on the descent through the forest coming from Steinebrück.
