A guided hiking tour from Ripsdorf through the Lampertstal valley and the unique cultural landscape of the juniper heaths around Alendorf.

With its inexhaustible variety, the Eifel always has something surprising to offer. The juniper heaths near Alendorf are a very special highlight. A hike through this ancient cultural landscape is a special experience. Walking among the junipers is like being transported to Tuscany: Almost like cypresses, the juniper bushes watch over this unique landscape as unshakeable.

The calcareous soil in the region gives rise to species-rich calcareous grasslands - the diversity of species is impressive: the fauna and flora differ significantly from the neighboring Eifel landscape. Our excursion into the "Italian Eifel" is rounded off by the beautiful Lampertstal valley and sweeping views on the ridge of Ripsdorf. At Gasthof Breuer in Ripsdorf, we round off this wonderful southern summer vacation day with typical Eifel cuisine.
