Açıklama
September 1944 – The Allied troops reach the West Wall. Anti-tank obstacles, lines of bunkers. The route to the Rhine leads through dense, impassable woodland that the Americans have to overcome.
This tour is a combined vehicle and walking excursion and starts in Roetgen. See the place where the Allies crossed the border into Germany. Come with us to the tank barriers of the West Wall and see the dragon's teeth up close. Experience the forest and the deep valleys crisscrossed by streams. Join us in visiting memorial sites, bunker ruins, crumbling trenches and foxholes. Fascinating stories and comparison photos will be shown at most locations.
We'll pass by memorials time and again. A visit to the cemeteries is highly recommended.
