Audio tour "Grüne Hölle" (Green Hell)

Bollendorf

The people of Bollendorf will show you

A hike through the fantastic world of rocks near Bollendorf with the "tour guide in your pocket". At 10 audio stations, you will learn all about bizarrely shaped rocks, animals and plants, get to know cultural monuments, magnificent viewpoints and the people of Bollendorf! Look forward to stories from the village, such as Paul's smuggling tales. There's also music, health tips and more.

Accompanying you on this tour:

  •     Paul Colljung (†), author and Bollendorf expert
  •     Manfred Schmitt, hiking guide
  •     Elke Wagner, archaeologist
  •     Marco Neises, Lauschtour reporter

as well as doctor Jens Germeshausen, history expert Georges Calteux and the Bollendorf travelling musicians.

The tour takes its name from the "Green Hell", one of the impressive rock formations in the southern Eifel. Many large and small crevices were formed at the end of the last ice age. Hardly a ray of sunshine illuminates the Green Hell. It is so green because the sandstone absorbs water like a sponge - ideal conditions for moss, algae and lichen.
Other curious rock formations along the way include the Predigtstuhl, the Affenkopf and the Eulenhorst. From the Lingelslay, a rocky outcrop, you have a beautiful view of Bollendorf and the Sûre valley.
