Hausen 3 [68]

The second section starts in the scenic expanses of the Brohltal, featuring beautiful views of medieval Olbrück Castle and two true spectacles of nature: the Rodder Maar and Lake Königssee. Want to go for a little detour? A round of swingolf, the golf sport for everyone, will feel like a pleasant slowdown in front of a gorgeous backdrop.

Distance: 4.9 km Starting point: An der Streng in Simmerath-Hammer

Wide plains, the idyllic babbling waters of the Swist and Erft rivers and romantic moated castles - out and about in the Northern Eifel.

Water and forest in transition

The deeply carved valley of the Weiße Wehe gives this hiking trail its name. The starting point is the "Zum Alten Forsthaus" hotel in Vossenack. The Wehebach originates from the confluence of the "Roter Wehe" and "Weißer Wehe" rivers. In 1981, six Polish beavers were settled in the Weiße Wehe valley. Until the 19th century, the rodents were hunted for their fur, declared fish by the Pope, eaten during Lent and used as an aphrodisiac. The consequence was their almost complete extinction. Today, the Eifel population is once again estimated at 200 to 250 animals. Guided hikes follow the tracks of the beaver. We follow hiking trail no. 46 .
