Beautiful tour - highly recommended. Probably not enough shade for midsummer, but otherwise perfect. Next time I'll try it in winter and then go the other way around.

Back to the Beginning – Hiking on the Eifel Trail "Tuscany of the Eifel"

Some places leave a lasting impression – and some trails tell a story. Our story with the Eifel Trail "Tuscany of the Eifel" began in May 2021. It was one of our first tours – we were freshly infected with the hiking bug, curious, full of …

A great round, in great weather, with a beautiful view, everything was just right today. But we still didn't manage to walk the planned 15.7 km. In the end we took a shortcut and left the Calvary, which we had already seen earlier, on the right. The round is nicely varied. I suspect that the photos will be there in …

At Calvary Hill, we were able to enjoy a magnificent 360-degree view of the Eifel hills. …

February 4, 2023,Wanderung "Eifelspur Toskana der Eifel"

First hike in the Eifel 2023. The Eifel trail "Tuscany of the Eifel" was not easy to walk today. In some places the ground was very soft and slippery. The landscape is just gorgeous in early February.

Gravel path, forest path, up and down quite strenuous. Take breaks and bring plenty of drinks.

This Eifelspur has been on my wish list for a while. Finally it came true, the four of us made our way to the Eifel, to Ripsdorf. And as expected, we had a wonderful day.
