As well as my Westwall Tour, you will also see traditional & elegant, very old German towns, such as Dorrenbach, Rechtenbach, Bad Bergzabern etc, beautiful forested hills, and experience the wonderful nature.

This can be a driving & hiking tour, or a driving / hiking /cycling tour combined (E-bike or standard bicycle provided)

This was the “WISSEMBOURG GAP” – One of the strongest sections of the entire Westwall (SiegfriedLine) and a natural gateway, for the American 7th Army to enter into Germany. This is where the 36th Infantry Division – The “T-Patchers” – Texas Division, supported by the 14th Armored Division , fought so heavily & heroically and finally breached the Westwall, in late March 1945…..
