Description

The LF Cycling Club also wants to contribute to drawing more attention to the Death Wire from 14-18. Especially now that there is also an exhibition in the Achelse Kluis about the major explosion of the German ammunition trains at Hamont station in 1918. According to the ED, almost 30 municipalities are participating in this commemoration of the 350 km long electric border barrier in those years. The leader of a white crocus route to commemorate the death thread is the municipality of Maasmechelen, which will plant no fewer than 35,000 of the total of 125,000 bulbs that will now be planted in the ground in October 2018. On this route you can find various reconstructions, including for FKP 17 on the Ulfelseweg and at the Smeetshof(weg) on the Weerterweg (Bocholt) and at Grenspaal 174 between FKP 216 and 38, but also for the Kluis itself.
Tip: The bicycle ferry at FKP 22 to FKP 1 to Kaal is out of service during the winter period, so cycle from FKP 22 (the Spaenjerd/tourist information point) to 21 and continue the route there. You will miss Thorn, Wessem and Maasbracht.
