Does anyone use MapSource software on your sat nav systems? I'm trying to work out the best route down there from Calais. If you have been before, then the best route would be greatly appreciated.

Best route is E40, E42, exit at Prum, and follow the 410 to Gerolstein and 258 to Adenau.

With a petrol stop it should take less than 4 hours.

All sorted now thanks. I looked on the northloop website, and managed to put in some waypoints using that, and now have a pretty straight forward route.

This will hopefully be the first of many trips to come, so I may be able to get there with no navigational aids at all one day!!
