Walking Holidays in the Eifel |
|
The Eifel as a whole is a gentle landscape of wooded hills
and bare heathland, divided up by a series of quiet valleys
and dotted with volcanic lakes. Our holidays focus on the southern, Volcanic Eifel, which has spectacular pillars of volcanic rock and glassy, circular crater lakes, locally known as Maare. Holiday facilities here are well developed. Many of the rocky summits are crowned with a romantic castle ruin; The pretty small town of Manderscheid has two! Your walks in the Eifel will lead you past dolomite cliffs, ancient trees and nature reserves, and over rolling hills and through peaceful woodland and via Stone Age, Celtic and Roman settlements as well as past traditional farmhouses. |

Although the Walking Holidays on this page are of
six or seven days, we can usually arrange for you to cover
just part of a walking tour, or just spend two or three
days in a single centre, so this area is ideal for a short break
of three or four days walking (four or five nights accommodation). E-mail us to enquire about shortened versions of one of these walking holidays |
