Route Summary I created and rode this route in 2014. Our base was a holiday home in Deudesfeld, near Daun, in the Volcanic Eifel.
This route goes through the Volcanic Eifel, Luxembourg and a small part through Belgium, with many beautiful winding roads. You pass several villages and towns where you can stop for a drink, something to eat or to see something.
Along the way you will see castles and other historical buildings, some of which are open to visitors.
It is a long route of about 375 kilometers, so if you want to visit sights and take part in guided tours of castles, you will have to shorten the route a bit, there are several options included in the route to shorten the route.
It is also possible to visit the Bitburg Beer Brewery.
I rate this route with 5 stars.

RouteXpert Review This route starts in Deudesfeld, a village in the German Eifel, but runs for a large part through Luxembourg and even a small part through Belgium. The total ride is 375 km, so you are on the road all day. Plan in advance which sights you want to visit, more information is included in the links in this review.
The winding roads of Luxembourg are a paradise for motorcyclists and popular destinations in the Luxembourg Ardennes include Beaufort, Vianden, Echternach, Berdorf and Larochette, several of which are also on the route. The countryside in Luxembourg is beautiful and there are many historical sights, such as castles and fortresses, so there is plenty to see along the way.
One of the most popular areas is the Mullerthal, which is characterized by large and often jagged rocks and fairytale forests with streams and waterfalls, the most beautiful is the Schiessentümpel waterfall, for which a POI and Route point are included in this route. The many hairpin bends and the beautiful nature between the rocks in the Mullerthal make the area a popular destination for motorcyclists, but also for cyclists, hikers and other tourists. So keep in mind that it can be very busy and be considerate of each other. Larrochette is a popular village, where motorcyclists like to plan a break, this is included as a lunch stop in the route.
Along the route there are a number of sights that you can visit, as described below.
The Aquatower in Berdorf is a 55-meter high water tower. In addition to an impressive view of Berdorf and the surrounding area, they offer an exhibition with various interactive consoles on the theme of "water and geology".
Beaufort Castle and Renaissance Palace where you can experience the history of Luxembourg from the Middle Ages to the present. Explore the medieval castle, built and expanded in four periods between 1015 and 1650, features different architectural styles such as Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance. The more than 350 year old palace with four wings in French Renaissance style.
Vianden is a lovely town in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The imposing medieval castle on top of the hill makes it look like a fairytale. With only 2,000 inhabitants and its picturesque houses, Vianden does not feel like a town at all, but more like a cozy village. Definitely worth a visit.
When leaving Vianden you drive past the dam in Vianden, which has been transformed into a gigantic work of art. The German artist Klaus Dauven creates, with the help of the company Kärcher (manufacturer of high-pressure cleaners), a "Reverse Graffiti" artwork. The artwork shows the faces of five workers who were involved in the construction of the structure.
Towards the end of the tour we drive through Bitburg, where you will find the Bitburg Brewery and its visitor centre. For over 200 years, one of the most famous German beers has been brewed here. The Bitburger Experience offers visitors an insight into the family brewery, its success story and the entire world of beer brewing. See, hear, smell and taste what makes Bitburger Premium Pils so special during a guided tour. At the historic brewery location, you can experience the fascinating world of beer on 1,700 square metres: the tour leads through our historic brewhouse with its gleaming copper vats and ends in the old boiler house with its extra-high ceilings, where you can taste the beers in the Bit-Lounge.
From Bitburg it is about a 45-minute drive to the holiday home.

Route Collections in this region 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.
All routes in this collection have been checked and made equal for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation by a MyRoute-app RouteXpert.
