🌳 On this route you hike mainly through the oak forests of the Hetzinger Forest and can experience the dynamics of the typical, larger and smaller Eifel streams. If you pay some attention to the waysides by the creeks, it might well be possible to spot fresh beaver tracks.

July 16, 2023,SW-Rureifel_Von Blens auf den Themenweg 1 Biber, Bäche, Eichenwälder-2023-07-16*

Hiked the Eifel theme trail no. 1 today. No idea why beavers are mentioned in the name of the tour, we saw no sign of a beaver or even the remotest hint of its presence. Nevertheless, a nice tour along streams, even if there was little water due to the dry summer. Otherwise, there is a lot of walking through …

Today a themed tour of the Eifel National Park on mostly well-known paths. Overall a varied tour - partly on narrow paths.

Spontaneous, good idea from Jonas... the tour was set up on komoot. Except for some very wet spots, it's very nice to walk and offers some nice spots. Even if the last climb was not compatible with my winter fitness. 🤭

We did this tour. Too little information for a themed hike.

As a tour to discover beavers = disappointing, since the Birgeler Jungle is nicer. The condition of the paths leaves a lot to be desired.

We were traveling with day tourists from Holland and friends from Krefeld, they were rather disappointed. It would have been better to have done …

A beautiful tour, beautiful colors of nature at this time of year.
The right one is round with the nose pointing inwards, only for experienced hikers with good shoes. But exciting! Great

The gentle sounds of the babbling brook accompanied me on my walk as I passed the artfully constructed beaver lodges. Each piece of wood they had skillfully put together told stories of tireless industriousness and the harmony of nature. The path meandered through a majestic oak forest, whose old trees proudly towered into the sky and spread their wide branches …

A hike with initial difficulties and many detours. Then of course the rain also came, but why should that bother us? We want to hike. After we had overcome the storm damage, it turned out to be a great hike.
