September 5, 2025,Ostbelgien (Bütgenbach): Genusstour 07 - "Rund um den See Bütgenbach"

ostbelgien.eu/de/fiche/hiking/genusstour-07-buetgenbach

"A lake has an irresistible appeal. Like Bütgenbach Lake, where every summer becomes a vacation.

In the morning, the north wind blows away the last wisps of fog still hanging over the lake. That means: Today the weather will be fine! From the Worriken leisure center, we head towards the reservoir along the RAVeL route. A 23-meter-deep, 140-meter-long, and …

After a leisurely coffee in the hotel, we actually only wanted to take a few more steps by the lake, maybe until the evening sun shone so beautifully on the way.
This time, however, we managed a lot more distance than planned and lapped it, very fast for our standards! the Bütgenbacher See.
It is a dam built in the …

On a beautiful spring day, we went on a circular hike around the picturesque Bütgenbach Lake today, Easter Monday.

Our starting point was the Seestraße car park, which is not only free of charge but also located directly on the RAVeL route (GPX coordinates: 50.427150, 6.212677). Shortly after the start, the hike offered us beautiful lake views, with the surrounding …

On today's beautiful autumn day, I felt like hiking along the water.
At these temperatures, there are no bloodsuckers that annoy and sting - for me, that's why it's the best time of year.

In East Belgium, there are pleasure tours along the water, or in the forest or with a panorama.
The practical hiking guide "Pleasure Tours" contains 26 …

September 16, 2024,2024-09-16 G&M „Venn-Wanderungen" Einstiegsrunde Bütgenbacher See 12km

Opening round of our three-day Venn hikes.
The lake is absolutely surprising, with walking paths along countless pebble bays. The natural, wild delta where the Bütgenbach flows into the lake.
A paradise for water-loving people with many bathing spots, although it is too shady to explore them in the water today.
Thank you.
Merci.
Thank you very much.
