Mit Freunden durch den Gerolsteiner Stadtwald

On the Trails of the Railway from Gerolstein to Hillesheim - between Dohm and HillesheimThis year we will hike approximately 10 km along the former route between Dohm and Hillesheim. Along the way, Helmut Bell and Manfred Jehnen from the Jünkerath Railway Friends will share the history of the line. Numerous, partly derelict buildings still remind us of its use.Hiking Guide and Registration: Johannes Munkler, 06591-3888 // 3 € per person for the ride Meeting Point: at 1:00 PM at the Fountain Square (information board of the Eifel Association), 54568 Gerolstein or 1:15 PM at the community center in Dohm  

The 11.5 km long community hike of the Eifel associations starts and ends at the community center in Büscheich and leads through the city forest to the "Dietzenley" with observation tower. From there, it continues past the "Königsfichte" and the rock faces in the nature reserve "Heiligenstein" to the shelter "Burgblick" with a view into the Kyll Valley. The lowest point is the castle ruin "Löwenburg," offering views of the town and Gerolsteiner Dolomites. Afterward, the path leads back to Büscheich via the forest roller coaster and the "Büschkapelle." After about four hours, the tour concludes with coffee and cake at the community center; non-hikers are also welcome. Backpack provisions are recommended.
