TTT 2010 04 Eifel D1 Asten Manderscheid

Route Summary
Ever since the early 90s of the last century, Promotor has been setting out the so-called Tank Bag Tours. You understand that the name still comes from the GPS-free era, when motorcyclists still searched their way on roads with a roadbook in the tank bag or router roll. The 173 ANWB Promoter TankTasTocht (TTT) were scanned by Henry ten Dam and signed by Leon Stolk in Mapsource and later placed as a Track in a .gpx file. These are made available through the MrGPS website with the approval of the ANWB Promoter so that everyone can enjoy them. The 1st TTT is from 1992, 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 spaced the start point and end point of the route to avoid navigating directly to the end point, and I added the POI files from the start and end point just like a possible stop.
Finally, I made the route the same for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users.
Thanks to Henry, Leon, MrGPS and Promoter.

RouteXpert Review
This TTT starts in Asten and is part of 3 days of touring in the (Volcano) Eifel. This TTT is mainly about beautiful roads, there is a very small piece of A2 in Wessem to cross the mesh to Montfoort. Soon after Montfoort you cross the border to Germany where the 1st stop is planned in Waldfeucht at Restaurant Ratsstube. After coffee it goes back to the Netherlands to enter it at Schinveld, you cross South Limburg and you cross the border with Belgium at De Plank. Once in Belgium, head for the Lac de la Gileppe, to have lunch at the Restaurant du Lac de la Gileppe * and enjoy the view at the top of the restaurant, where you have a beautiful view of the reservoir. * The Gileppe dam (French: barrage de la Gileppe) is a dam in the Belgian province of Liège, in the municipalities of Jalhay and Baelen. The supply of water is assured by the Gileppe that originates in the High Fens.
After lunch it continues through the Ardennes towards Coo, where you have the option to refuel on the route. After the possible fuel stop, it continues towards the 3-country point (Belgium - Germany - Luxembourg), where you cross the border with Germany again to pause at Pension Froschloch, where the Dutch are in charge. This is also the last stop before you arrive at the terminus in Manderscheid, namely Hotel Am Ceresplatz, which is also run by Dutch people. Just before you reach the hotel you can refuel, so that you can leave the next day with a full tank.
Because I have driven this route myself, this route gets 5 stars.
Route details:
The route has been made the same for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users. That has been successful everywhere except in Animals between route points 29 and 30 (Purple), where TomTom and Garmin disagree. Not a big problem, if you drive alone you just follow the instructions of your GPS, if you drive in a group then you follow the driver. From route point 30 the two come together again and your GPS will follow the route correctly again.
Stopping places:
rp 20 - Coffee stop at Restaurant Ratsstube
rp 41 - Lunch stop at Restaurant du Lac de la Gileppe
rp 46 - Tank option at Q8 in Coo
rp 53 - Coffee stop at Pension Froschloch
rp 64 - Refueling in Manderscheid.

Top 5 Car and Motorcycle Routes in the Eifel
The Eifel is the eastern part of the medium plateau Eifel-Ardennes. It is located north of the Moselle and west of the Rhine. The largest part is in Germany, a small part is in Belgium, in the East Cantons. The German part of Eifel is located in the federal states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate. The highest point is the Hohe Acht with 747 meters.
Several chains can be distinguished in the Eifel:
The northernmost part is called the Nordeifel, which in Belgium connects to the High Fens;
To the east of this is the Ahrgebirge, this part is located north of the Ahr in the Ahrweiler district;
South of the Ahr is the Hohe Eifel (or Hocheifel), of which the Hohe Acht (747 m) is the highest point, and also the highest point in the entire Eifel region;
To the west, near the Belgian border, the hills are known as Schneifel, part of the wider Snow Eifel area with peaks reaching up to 698 metres;
South and east of the Hohe Eifel is the Volcano-Eifel, a volcanic area with many crater lakes (Maare).
The southern part of the Eifel is less high. The area is bisected by streams and rivers running southwards. These streams flow into the Moselle. The largest of these rivers is the Kyll; the hills around this river are known as the Kyllwald;
In the south, the Eifel ends in the Voreifel.
In the north of the Eifel there are some large reservoirs. The largest of these is the reservoir in the Roer that was created by the construction of the Roerdal dam.
The Nürburgring is also located in the Eifel, a well-known car circuit for Formula 1 races, among other things. Since 2004, part of the north of the Eifel has become the Eifel National Park. This National Park falls entirely within the German-Belgian nature park High Fens-Eifel. Another part of the Eifel falls within the South Eifel Nature Park.
Well-known throughout the Netherlands and Belgium by car and motorcyclists, so reason enough for the MyRoute app RouteXpert to compile a Top 5 of Car and Motorbike routes for you.
