Pittenbach: Hotels and Accommodations
Pittenbach lies on the Prüm between Watzerath and Pronsfeld. The village therefore combines a riverside location with paths, railway lines, and small cultural and historical points of interest.
If you would like to book a hotel in Pittenbach, this is part of your personal travel planning.
Geographical Location
Pittenbach is connected to the regional road network via Federal Highway 410. The town center is shaped by the Prüm; the adjoining areas consist of agriculturally used green spaces. The Dreesbach also flows through the town center, partly in an open channel.
Paths
Pittenbach offers direct access to a cycling path and a hiking trail. An inn in the town center is located directly next to the cycling path. The Pronsfeld–Prüm cycling route reaches Pittenbach via approximately two kilometers of municipal connecting road and then continues along the former railway line toward Watzerath. It is part of the Prümtal Cycle Route and the Eifel-Ardennes Cycle Route.
The Eifel-Ardennes Cycle Route runs from Prüm to St. Vith in East Belgium along a former railway line. Railway heritage along this route includes the Pronsfeld Railway Museum in the open air and a 400-meter-long tunnel.
The former railway station in nearby Pronsfeld is the starting point for tours along former railway lines. Parking spaces are available there for arriving cyclists, hikers, and inline skaters.
Culture
A maypole and a Christmas tree are put up in the town center every year. Carnival and the traditional Burgbrennen bonfire tradition also remain firmly rooted in Pittenbach culture.
Opposite Ober Kochs 29 stands a listed wayside cross. It is considered an elaborately historicizing pedestal cross dating from around 1918. Another listed wayside cross is located north of Pittenbach on a field path; it is a tall slate pedestal cross bearing the inscription “1918.”
A sandstone shrine depicting the Adoration of the Three Kings stands on a bridge in Pittenbach. Outside Pittenbach there is also a covered statue of the Virgin Mary whose shape is reminiscent of an altar.
Practical Information
A playground in Pittenbach is considered to be well maintained and is regularly equipped with new facilities. One accommodation in Pittenbach offers a wellness area that can also be rented without an overnight stay.
