Classic car and motorbike tours through the Eifel and Ardennes

The roads around Bütgenbach are a hidden gem for motorcyclists and drivers of sports cars and classic cars. Winding country roads, very little traffic and landscapes that seem to change with every turn. The Ardennes and the neighbouring Eifel region offer hundreds of kilometres of scenic roads through forests, valleys and small villages. Our recommendation: take the Venn and Lakes Route to discover East Belgium - a 150 km circular drive through the High Fens, past reservoirs, quiet villages and Belgium’s highest point, the Signal de Botrange at 694 metres above sea level.
