Bert Loorbach, the writer, is an enthusiastic motorcyclist himself and lived in France for a year and a half. During that time he devoted himself to mapping the unknown and beautiful roads of France especially for motorcyclists.
This is the first route from the book originally called The French Ardennes and was 90 km.
Start and end point Monthermé, where there is also a hotel to spend the night. There are also a number of campsites in the vicinity and at the lake of Les Mazures, these are listed as POIs.
To reach the minimum length of 2 hours I have deviated slightly from the route and the total length is now 129 km.
Instead of taking the D989 to Hargnies, we take the N935 via Houdremont. From Hargnies we drive Vireux-Molhain.
Along the way you pass several villages with nice old streets, a small restaurant and bars.
A number of sights, restaurants and snack bars are included as POIs.
RP8 in the town of Vireux-Molhain can be paused, there are a number of snack bars and restaurants.
RP10 Fumay is the ancient capital of the slate and known for its purplish color. The streets in the old center are very narrow and winding.
RP11 Rocroi is a small fortified town.
RP12 from Rocroi to Revin you drive along the winding Vallée de la Misère road.
RP13 in the town of Revin can be paused, there are a number of snack bars and restaurants.
RP15 from here the river Maas runs past a large rock formation "Les Dames de Meuse".
This route is a nice short tour for half a day, including stops, in a nice area with reasonable roads.
I therefore rate this with 3 stars.
The route has been made suitable for Garmin, TomTom, Harley-Davidson BoomBox 2019 and Navigation App.
