High towers, picturesque oriels, protective walls and a deep castle moat amaze visitors when the well-preserved medieval castle appears out of nowhere on one of the hiking trails - e.g. the award-winning dream trail "Eltzer Burgpanorama". The interior holds some well-preserved treasures: the imposing knights' hall, the armoury and treasure chamber or the bedrooms, living rooms and writing rooms. All this can be experienced on a guided tour between April and November.

The loop trail starts at the church in Trierweiler. From there, you walk through the lively village towards Grewenich. Arriving at the top of "Michelhölzchen", the view compensates the exhausting ascend. The view crosses plains in the direction of Udelfangen and the Sauer Valley. The further route leads down into the valley, along the Trierweilerer stream. This lovingly arranged gem invites you to linger. It´s worth a visit, in case it´s open. From there, head towards the motorway. The elevation reveals another view of Trierweiler. You return back to the starting point by walking along the beautiful park.

In the middle of the town of Prüm you will find the St. Salvator Basilica, the landmark of Prüm. A visit to the baroque parish church is worthwhile.
