Route Summary
Ever since the early 90s of the last century, ANWB / Promoter has been setting out the so-called TankTasTocht (TTT). You understand that the name still comes from the GPS-free era, when motorcyclists still searched their way on inland roads with a roadbook in the tank bag or router roll. This TTT are touring through the Netherlands with the occasional trip to Belgium, Germany or even Luxembourg, which are driven 6 to 7 times a year. The 1st around March and the last around October. These TTTs have a starting point, a pause location and an end point. It is nice to discover what you have not seen in your own country and which nice roads you did not know before.
This TTT is from 2016, so the route may differ slightly from the original.
I have checked all route points and, where necessary, placed them neatly on the road. Also, if necessary, I have further set the starting point and end point of the route a little further apart to prevent navigation to the end point directly and added the POI files of the start and end point, as well as possible pause location (s).
Finally, I made the route the same for TomTom, Garmin and MRA Navigation users.
Thanks to ANWB / Promoter.

RouteXpert Review
This TTT starts and ends in Slenaken near 't-Brugske, and crosses the national borders once more. The route enters the Ardennes to Luxembourg and then back to Slenaken via another route. You first drive to Verviers, don't worry, then start the party, then the motorcycle holiday feeling comes to mind again. Wonderful hills, beautiful nature and powerful steering roads, with a crack here and there! As stated, you also touch Luxembourg, so you fill up in Luxembourg!
Along the way you can stop at the Musée de la Forêt and des Eaux, this is a top museum about nature, animals and water. Or a little further at the Musée Décembre 1944. The "December 1944" museum faithfully reflects the history and shows visitors one of the most important collections in Europe.
Now that you are in Belgium, you cannot miss a fries, for that you can stop along the route at Friterie Bertrand in Trois-Points. When you enter Belgium from Luxembourg, you can stop at Europa Monument for a photo moment. The monument consists of five erect megalithic stones that symbolized five countries in the then European Community. On the stones are memorial plaques of important Europeans.
Furthermore, in St. Vith, you can stop at Total to stretch your legs and have a drink and for those who have not refueled in Luxembourg, you can do this here as well. In Balen, you can stop at Friterie Le Chalet, if you want to eat a Belgian fries or just to have a drink.
Then it goes via the 3-country point at Vaals via the Epenerbaan, where one of the most beautiful bends in the Netherlands is, to Slenaken.
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).
