EifelSchleife Bleiberg (Municipality of Hellenthal) DETOUR DUE TO DAMAGE TO THE PATH SURFACE

Over the Bleiberg with magnificent views of the rolling hills of the Eifel through dense forests and wide meadows towards the medieval hill castle Reifferscheid.

The strenuous hike with steep ascents rewards you with beautiful views over the natural landscape of the North Eifel. Especially from the Bleiberg, you have a fantastic view. The alternation between dense forests, idyllic villages, and wide meadows and fields makes this hike a real experience.

At the end of the hike, you reach the medieval hill castle in Reifferscheid. Unfortunately, only the surrounding walls, a gatehouse, and the round towers remain. However, unique views, especially from the Eifel-view Bergfried, over nature are possible here. The surrounding castle courtyard shines with its sweet little houses medieval charm and is an absolute highlight of this hike.
