The Original Stages

There are many different ways to experience the Eifelsteig. You can hike the 15 original stages from Aachen-Kornelimünster to Trier in one go and enjoy the entire route in all its rich diversity. Alternatively, you can split the trail into several hiking vacations and discover it bit by bit. If you prefer a more flexible approach, you can also plan and book your Eifelsteig vacation individually—that way, you decide for yourself how many stages you want to hike per trip and how much time you’ll take for each one.

A varied, well-organized, and easy-to-manage hike featuring some of the most spectacular scenery anywhere in Europe. Highly recommended.
