Between Aachen and Trier, it connects the most beautiful parts of the Eifel over a length of 300 km. From the imperial city of Aachen it runs through the moors of the High Fens, the Rur Valley with its reservoirs, the Eifel National Park via the Vulkaneifel, the Southern Eifel to the oldest city in Germany, to Trier. Pretty small towns along the way such as Daun, Gerolstein, Manderscheid or Hillesheim invite you to stroll and take a break. There is a varied landscape with beautiful views over and over again, as well as hikes through quiet, dense forests. The path runs mainly on natural paths and is very well signposted so that it is impossible to get lost.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.muehlebirgel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/wanderschuhe.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-239\" style=\"width:345px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>You can book a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.muehlebirgel.de\/wandern-eifel.html\">hiking tour<\/a> on the Eifelsteig as a package, or you can opt for individual stages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 25.5 km long stage between Mirbach and Hillesheim takes you in about 6 hours through light forest and plateaus over the land of limestone quarries and through beautiful valleys past the Dreim\u00fchlen waterfall in the Ahbach valley.
