An incredibly beautiful tour through the Vulkaneifel with breathtaking views near and far. Lots of moss, great rocks, narrow paths, delicious Croatian lunch, lots of sun and short snow showers made the tour very varied.

Afterwards, take a sauna at home with great herbal mint infusions and then even take a zipline tour through the treetops at night at Eifel …
