View from Daun Viaduct

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

In addition to the "Großes Schlitzohr" (Great Slant Ear) tunnel, there's another cycling highlight in the region: the Daun Viaduct. Here, you ride over an old railway bridge with a height of 28 meters. The views are accordingly magnificent.

Through the 'Große Schlitzohr'

Highlight • Structure

A truly amazing experience for young and old. Turn on the lights – even though the tunnel is lit.
And in hot weather, it's like riding through a "refrigerator."

Großes Schlitzohr Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

The former railway tunnel of the Eifelquerbahn near Mehren, known as the "Großes Schlitzohr," is part of the Maare-Mosel cycle path and offers a refreshing dip in both summer and winter. At 560 meters long, it's already astonishingly long.

View of Daun from Daun Viaduct

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice bike path, the one on the edge of the forest. It can be driven very well and comfortably, is very varied due to the route and the changing landscape and is just plain fun!

March 29, 2022,Drei-Maaren-Tour von ab Daun

Today was only a very small tour on the program. I just wanted to drive down the three adjacent maars. Nevertheless, the tour had it all. The issued "bicycle route" on the Gemündener Maar had a gradient of up to 3% up to the Dronkenturm. The surface was rough with roots. Sometimes I could only push my bike. In return …

October 4, 2024,Down to Daun - Bike and Hike - Trail-Dog-Trailer

What a tour with a dog in the trailer. Took the old railway line to Daun, now a cycle path.
In Daun we took the dog for a walk and warmed up with a cappuccino.
Then we went up steeply (again) and then rode down on hiking trails and S1 single trails with a trekking bike and trailer. The response …
