Eifelsteig Etappe 01: Kornelimünster - Roetgen

The Eifelsteig trail begins in the Kornelimünster district of Aachen, a former destination for pilgrims, and brings the hiker from the bustling city into the quietness of nature. In the Inde Valley, information boards enlighten the walker about the many limestone kilns along the trail. After a short ascent you reach the Struffelt Heath, with its moors and lowland heaths. Wooden footbridges bring you through this impressive landscape. The trail continues past the dam on the Dreilägerbach and onto Roetgen, the 'Gateway to the Eifel'.
