Recordist's notes

Innerhalb eines alten, ehemaligen Eisenbahntunnels. Der Klang von Wasser, das die Steinwände des dunklen und kalten Tunnels herunterläuft und tropft. Der Tunnel befindet sich direkt an der Belgischen Grenze und wurde über die Zeit ein Refugium seltener Arten von Fledermäusen und steht daher unter dem Schutz des Luxemburgischen Naturschutz Verbandes. Durchdiese Massnahme wird eine europäische Fahrradwegroute hier unterbrochen. Inside an old, former railway tunnel. The sound of water dripping down the stone walls inside the dark and cold tunnel. The tunnel is located directly at the Belgium border and has become a refuge for rare species of bats and is therefore protected by the nature conversation department of the gouverment of Luxembourg, which interrupts a european bicycle trail here.
