Rode today and it was very easy. Beautiful views in many places, hardly any in others, as there are hills or hedges/trees on the left and right. But a perfect path for relaxed cycling and making good progress.

Good solid cycle path. With good views in some places. But not everywhere.

From here you have a beautiful view of the Bütgenbach Lake.

The Bütgenbach dam was built between 1929 and 1932. The main function of the dam is to regulate the course of the Warche river. This created the lake of Bütgenbach. It is a starting point for beautiful, popular hiking routes: for example, a 10-kilometer walk can be made around the lake.
