RE: Northern Italy / French Alps Tour '22 - 2

As for alternatives to the German Eiffel then Luxembourg is rather nice. Vianden, Clervaux, Remich, Wiltz or Esch sur Sure would be decent bases for a couple of days. The Ardennes in Belgium might be swinging a bit far west. The other area, in Germany and often ignored is east of Cologne, centred on Siegen. Lots of interlinked river valleys.

Thanks Dave,

Both Belgian Eifel and Luxembourg were out of reach to me this year because of Covid. Hence considering a return. Will look at Siegen and environs also especially if I have to ride both ways Rotterdam to Switzerland. My hotel near Simmerath was quite decent so I might return there for a couple of nights to use as a touring base
