Büchel

1Northern approach

From this spot, along the B259, you can read the serials but there is no view of the airfield. Photography is difficult. The spot is easily found because the runway approach lights show up and you can position yourself on a small hill nearby.

2Southern approach

The Southern approach can be reached by following the road B259 through Büchel, turning right towards Gevenich and take a small road in Genevich to the right (called Ackerweg). You can also reach this spot by taking the road from Alflen to Lutzerath (the L52) and taking a small road to the left after passing a smaller gate of the base. In both cases you will eventually end up in an open field that offers opportunities for reading the serials and taking pictures.

3Threshold runway 03

There is an option to reach the fence near Runway 03. This position is great for photos and serials. The negative side of this position is that you have to walk for a while and choose a spot that is not in full view of the base's perimeter road, if you want to stay for a while.
