visiting Seigfried Line?

The only remnants I've seen are located deep within the Eifel National Park, south of Aachen. There was minimal signage, and I had to use a map and guidebook to find them. Most of the line was destroyed after the war and what remains has mostly been swallowed up by the forests. You generally need to hike deep into the woods to see anything.

There are German bunkers you can visit (Sunday afternoons) in the Westwall towns of Irrel and Besseringen. Panzerwerk Katzenkopf B-Werk Besseringen Perhaps THIS PAGE will be helpful as well.

If you staid straight instead turning south, there is a short road called Luxembourger Strasse that dead ends at what appears to be a farm. There are dragonsteeth installed there. The vertical line on the far left is the Belgium-Germany border. See this youtube video (in Swedish with English subtitles). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlHfnm8YUEQ

@ Russ...thanks for that above very important information, esp on the museums and cemeteries. Near Düren...good, I passed through that town once on the train.

Cary, I don't have the specifics of how I did it, but I was near Aachen, as Tom said, on our way towards Spa, Belgium. Prior to the trip I got the impression they, the S Line would be difficult to find, this was not the case, there they were, right next to the road. We stopped, stood next to a farmer's fence and stared at a S. line that was probably as pristine as the day they were made accept for the passageway where numerous objects were moved to allow , either an army tank, or the current farmers tractor to go through. I was told the reason the entire field had not been cleared, it was too expensive to do. By the way, we were on our way to Bastogne; Belgium has a lot of WWII museums, etc. Good Luck!

Thanks for the help; partic Russ w/ links. I had already found the one abt the Huertgen Forest,the museum in Vossenack, and the 12 km hiking trail from Simmerath to Monschau. I'm in the planning stage of our trip for 2014 and am poring over maps and plotting what we most want to visit and a logical route. No GPS for this old techno peasant. I enjoy having a paper map (have Michelin for this area) and following all the little towns while my husband drives.

@ Cary..."No GPS for this old techno peasant." You got it! Great. Travel/road maps from the German ADAC will also be helpful to you in the planning of this road trip. Depending on your schedule you may want to consider go to the lower Rhine area, the Niederrheingebiet (the area of the Rhine I'm most familiar with), to the town of Kleve and the Reichswald.
