Route

RAVel 39 / 38

The RAVeL 39/38 is one of the oldest and most mythical RAVeLs. You cycle from the Drielandenpunt in 50 km to Liège on the (asphalted) old railway lines 39 and 38 with few intersecting roads. Along the way you will discover the Land of Herve and its meadows, orchards and local products. Cycle past Battice Fort. Get off your bike in Clermont-sur-Berwinne and walk the cobbled streets of one of the most beautiful villages in Wallonia. Climb the stairs of the Montage de Bueren in Liège and enjoy a beautiful view of the city at the top of the Citadel. At the bottom you will find Brasserie C and Brouwerij Curtius, where you can enjoy a Belgian beer with Liège meatballs.

The route is easy to follow thanks to the signage along the way. At the Drielandenpunt you go in the direction of Gemmenich. After 1.4 km the RAVeL Lines 39 and 38 starts. Departure point: Tour Panoramique des Trois Frontières, Route des Trois Bornes 99, 4851 Gemmenich (Plombières).

From Vaals, this route also connects to the Heuvelland Cycle Route towards Sint-Pietersberg in Maastricht. Do you want to cycle (multi-day) between Maastricht, Vaals and Liège? Then check out the Euregional cycle route of about 120 km in which the Maasroute, RAVeL 38/39 and Heuvelland Cycle Route are combined.
