150.6kmLength
3,760mElevation gain
Circular
The tour leads through the heart of the Eifel and connects the historic spa town of Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler with the volcanic landscape of Gerolstein and the legendary Nürburgring. You hike through a varied landscape of steep slate vineyards, dense beech forests and dramatic limestone cliffs. The trail leads through the Ahr valley, famous for its Pinot Noir, and passes the Nürburgring - a world-famous racetrack nicknamed the Green Hell by Jackie Stewart due to its challenging 300 metre elevation gain. In Gerolstein, you come across the mighty dolomite cliffs of the Munterley, part of a 380-million-year-old coral reef. Constant ascents and descents on a mixture of soft forest floors and stony volcanic paths make the tour a challenge in parts.
