Hiking on the Eifelsteig from Schalkenmehren to Trier - Only the goats grumble here

Look into the still, dark waters of the Daun maars. They seem to be abysmal. Many legends surround the waters. Can you recognize the outline of an old, sunken castle in the Weinfeld maar? Emerge from the world of fantasy, feel the original power of the earth within you, millions of years of development are visible in the maars today. Strengthened, you continue on your way up the drone tower. And if you haven't heard them before, you can see them now: The goats in the meadows around the Weinfeld maar. And no. They are not grumbling. They are telling you the story of the volcanoes.
Leave the fiery past behind you. The magic of the Liesertal awaits you. The river has persistently carved its way through the rock. Follow its meanders. It ripples on, but now it is the Kyll that accompanies you. It becomes rockier. The Butzerbach makes its way through the rock. Use the wide stones to get to the other bank with dry feet. Dare to cross the suspension bridges in the Butzerbach valley. Breathe in the spicy scent of the pine trees as they guide you along the path above the Moselle to your destination - the Roman city of Trier.

This offer can be booked all year round. The best time to travel is from April to November. In the winter months, there may be restrictions due to weather conditions. In addition, the shorter days must be taken into account for the stage lengths.
