The route does what it says on the tin. Again and again a wonderful worldview opens up over the different natural landscapes of the Eifel. You also get a lot of information about mining - especially if you pay a visit to the mining museum in Mechernich. But also on the route itself, for example at the lookout point "Kallmuther Berg mine", you get a fascinating view of the abandoned lead ore mining area and the landscapes behind it.
