The tunnel was part of the Maifeld Railway, a branch line of the Eifelquerbahn (Eifel Cross Railway), which was closed in the 1980s. Today, the tunnel is integrated into the Maifeld Cycle Path, which runs along former railway lines in the Maifeld region. The tunnel is paved and illuminated, making it attractive for both cyclists and hikers.

Ochtendung train station has a great restaurant right on the Maifeld cycle path. Small snacks and freshly tapped beer—including tasty non-alcoholic bottled beers—will revive the athletes' spirits...

A path between the fields, on the edge of the new development. It leads past the sports field to the edge of the forest. There you will find a shelter and a wave lounger.
