Communication

Two months before the event, you will receive an e-mail with lots of additional practical information.

Attributes

At least one month before the event, you will receive a post pack containing:

• A printed GUIDE BOOK:

• You can read this in full on an evening @ home, before leaving for the event a few weeks later;
• You will also enjoy using it every day during the event.

• The following can be found in it:

• A foreword with all kinds of tips;
• Some statistics about our participants:
• A list of all participating cars;

Upon arrival on Sunday afternoon or evening, you will receive a HARD RALLY PLATE as a reminder of the event. An ideal souvenir for your man cave, garage, office, etc.

Navigation

We navigate during the 3 days that we drive in the Dolomites via DIGITAL ROADBOOKS that will be available to all participants (drivers and co-drivers) several weeks before the start of the event.

We work with an App that you can download - for free - onto your smartphone:

• Works on both iPhone and Android phones;
• Uses your smartphone's GPS sensor;
• Always brings you back to the planned route in case of road works, accident, diversion, mistake, etc.
• Works with Apple Car Play and Android Auto;
• You can also simply attach your smartphone to your windshield;

This is a Ram-Mount

• For this first LUCID SPRING TOUR, we have mixed - in terms of routes - the best parts of 2 events in the same regions that we organised in 2022 for Alpine Netherlands and in 2023 for Alpine Centre Gent. Both hotels and the Sunday afternoon programme are completely new.

• Click on the blue words below for some photos of them:

• Foto's 4 Landen Tour 2023
• Foto's 4 Landen Tour 2022

All necessary pre-departure information will be emailed several weeks in advance to all participants (= drivers and co-drivers whose email address we have received upon booking).

A briefing about the next day will be given each evening during the event.

Friday 25 April

We will meet on Friday 25 April between 16h00 and 18h30 @ CASTEL LES SORBIERS in Hastière, Belgium.

Saturday 26 April

Road Tour of 319 km

After a delicious breakfast, we start today's first 54 km.
An hour later, we stop in France for a first break of 45'.
Time for coffee or another drink (non-alcoholic).
Shortly after, we pass Monthermé, among other places, from where we have a beautiful view of the Semois river.

We then ride back into Belgium, passing Vresse-sur-Semois, among others, before riding up and taking a second break at La Cabane at Bouillon Castle.

Among other things, we can enjoy the beautiful view of both the castle and the Semois river and the town of Bouillon.

Then it is 33 km to our lunch stop in the village of Sainte Cécile.

On the way there, we still pass the famous Herbeumont Bridge.

We crossed no less than 3 natural parks this morning, namely ‘Parc naturel Viroin Hermeton’, ‘Parc naturel régional des Ardennes’ and ‘Parc naturel de l'Ardenne méridionale’.

Bridge of Herbeumont

After our lunch, many beautiful roads await us.

We first drive via ‘Parc naturel Haute-Sûre Forêt d'Anlier’ to Luxembourg.

Parc naturel de la Haute-Sûre

After driving into Luxembourg, we set course on beautiful, billiard-paved roads to the Lac de la Haute Sûre, where a little later we cross the ‘Barrage d'Esch-sur-Sûre’.

Left: dam Esch-sur-Sûre

A few kilometres later, we end up in Esch-sur-Sûre.

This is called the most beautiful village in Luxembourg by many.

Esch-sur-Sûre

We then drive a circle around (the remains of) ‘Château d'Esch-sur-Sûre’.

Some 30 kilometres later, we arrive at Luxembourg's next gem: Clervaux.

Château de Clervaux

We drive to ‘Château de Clervaux’ and stop for an hour to visit the fantastic ‘Museum of the Battle of the Bulge’.

In the winter of 1944/1945, the Third Reich launched its final offensive against the Allies in the Ardennes, marking the beginning of the Battle of the Bulge (in English, ‘Battle of the Bulge’). On 16 December 1944, German troops commanded by General Von Rundstedt attacked the weakly defended American positions along the Sauer and Our rivers. Most of the Ösling was evacuated, but there were still many casualties among the civilian population. In response, General Patton moved his Third Army from the Saar to Luxembourg. In intense fighting, he recaptured the northern sector.

The Museum of the Battle of the Bulge recalls this dark but decisive period in the last century. The Battle of the Bulge lasted almost two months and was one of the biggest and most chaotic battles of World War II. The battle definitively drove the German occupiers out of Luxembourg.

Those not interested in culture and/or history can go for a drink nearby.

After this stop, we start the last hour's ride of the day.

Before crossing the border between Luxembourg and Germany, we drive past the magnificent Vianden Castle.

Castel of Vianden

No stop is planned here, but castle lovers can of course do this on their own initiative, as it is truly a beautiful heirloom.

From here to Hotel Eden au Lac, where we spend the night, only 30 km remain.

After an invigorating showere, we will round off this beautiful day with a cosy apero, followed by a delicious meal together.

Sunday 27 April

Road Tour of 301 km

After a nice breakfast, we start our road tour.

After 85 km, we stop 45' at Le Mouton Noir in Martelange, for a coffee or other drink.

Around 10:30 we start our cars back for the next 82 km to Brasserie de Rochehaut where we have lunch together over the brewery.

After lunch, we continue our return towards Flanders, but not without planning 2 more nice stops, each of which we reach via scenic roads.

We will start with a dynamic 76 km drive to Chimay, Belgium, where we will stop for a coffee break at a nice location.

The last 57 km take us from Chimay in Belgium to Valenciennes in northern France, also known as the Athens of the North.

Once parked, we end the weekend with a drink and a bite in Valenciennes.
