The Ravel route L45a is a junction of the internationally award-winning 125-km-long Vennbahn cycle path from Aachen (D) to Troisvierges (L). Both routes run on former railway lines and therefore guarantee relaxed cycling without any noteworthy inclines.
The 38.5-km-long line 45a branches off the Vennbahn cycle path in Weywertz and leads via Bütgenbach and Büllingen to Losheimergraben (D). There, it connects to the Kyll cycle path, which extends over Jünkerath and Gerolstein to Trier. The 106-km-long Eifel Easy Ride, a racing bike round trip with little incline through the Eifel, also leads along the Ravel. Sights include the lake of Bütgenbach, the Westwall and the numerous panoramic views of the hilly Eifel.
