Review:
Schengen is the “birthplace of a Europe without borders,” thanks the Schengen Agreement, which is thought to be a milestone in the goal to unite Europe. It was chosen due to its location in the Three-Border-Region, where Germany and France meet the three Benelux countries. The agreement includes 26 member states and allows 40 million Europeans to travel without barriers. It is because of this that Schengen is so special; visitors to this area will get to experience the European spirit first-hand. Guests will appreciate activities from tasting award-winning wines made from grapes of three different countries to hiking the Traumschleife Schengen Grenzenlos, one of the finest walking trails in the region.
