RouteXpert Review
The 2nd Monster tour of MTC-Zeilberg. The route goes to 4 countries, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, & Germany. In every country you stop for a while to eat and / or drink or just to stretch your legs and take some pictures. The route starts at the McDonalds in Maastricht. We drive to the south where we quickly enter Belgium, via Sippenaeken we drive towards the "High Fens" * where we at Boulangerie Philippe Hennes a delicious sandwich and cup of coffee. Then on to the head of Luxembourg to stretch the legs at Hotel Rittersprung. Then the Eifel in and back to the Netherlands.
* The High Fens (German: Hohes Venn; French: Hautes Fagnes) are part of the High Fens-Eifel Nature Park. The High Fens are located on a plateau, largely in the Ardennes and for a smaller part in the Eifel. It is located in Wallonia in eastern Belgium, there in the province of Liège, and in a piece of adjacent Germany. The whole covers about 4500 ha. As the name implies, a large part of the region consists of deposits of high peat. Some of this is still active, which means that peat formation still occurs. The High Fens have been provided with the European diploma for nature management since 1966. (source: Wikipedia).
The Eifel is the eastern part of the middle plateau Eifel-Ardennes. It lies north of the Moselle and west of the Rhine. The largest part is in Germany, a small part is located in Belgium, in the East Cantons. The German part of Eifel lies in the states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate. The highest point is the Hohe Acht with 747 meters. In the Tertiary, there was strong volcanic activity in the Eifel. The name Vulkane-Eifel also refers to this in the southeastern part. The craters created by explosions of volcanic gases have filled themselves with groundwater and are called Maare. The last eruptions took place 10,000 years ago. Research shows that this area is still geologically active: the entire Eifel region rises 1 to 2 millimeters per year. In the past, inactive phases of 10,000 to 20,000 years have also occurred, suggesting that future eruptions are still possible. (Source: Wikipedia).
Dutch South Limburg is a region in the south of the Dutch province of Limburg. The area covers an area of 660 km² and has approximately 600,000 inhabitants. South Limburg is characterized by a varied relief and beautiful nature areas in the midst of highly urbanized areas. The most important cities are Maastricht, Heerlen, Sittard and Kerkrade. The area also forms the Safety Region South Limburg (a joint venture between municipalities, fire brigade and medical assistance) (Source: Wikipedia).
Because I have driven this route myself, this route gets 5 stars.

About this region
Limburg (, Dutch pronunciation: [ˈlɪmbʏr(ə)x] (listen); Dutch: Limburg; Limburgish: Limburg; French: Limbourg) is a province in Belgium. It is the easternmost of the five Dutch-speaking provinces that together form the Region of Flanders, one of the three main political and cultural sub-divisions of modern Belgium.
Limburg is located west of the Meuse (Dutch: Maas), which separates it from the similarly-named Dutch province of Limburg. To the south it also shares a border with the French-speaking province of Liège, with which it also has historical ties. To the north and west are the old territories of the Duchy of Brabant. Today these are the Flemish provinces of Flemish Brabant and Antwerp to the west, and the Dutch province of North Brabant to the north.
The province of Limburg has an area of 2,427 km2 (937 sq mi) which comprises three arrondissements (arrondissementen in Dutch) containing 44 municipalities. Among these municipalities are the current capital Hasselt, Sint-Truiden, Genk, and Tongeren, the only Roman city in the province, and regarded as the oldest city of Belgium. As of January 2019, Limburg has a population of 874,048.The municipality of Voeren is geographically detached from Limburg and the rest of Flanders, with the Netherlands to the north and the Walloon province of Liège to the south. This municipality was established by the municipal reform of 1977 and on 1 January 2008 with its six villages had a total population of 4,207. Its total area is 50.63 km2 (19.55 sq mi).
