Hiking

A little north of the two villages of Walsdorf and Zilsdorf is a highlight that every visitor to the Eifel with at least a little geological interest should have on their wish list: The Arensberg volcano. Since this is created separately (and unfortunately, multiple times in the komoot system), here is only the access, a tunnel of non-natural origin. A covered passage has been created to protect visitors from possible falling rocks.
