Prümtalweg Off-Grid Section

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Here the "Prümtalweg" runs steeply uphill from the Prüm valley back up to the Eifel hills in the direction of Philippsweiler.
Always slowly, the path is steep and exhausting! 🥵

Highlight • Viewpoint

On this section you walk relaxed on dirt roads along the shady forest edge. In front of you you can already see the first roofs of the village Philippsweiler.

Nice place to rest in the Prüm valley with a view of the river. 😎
It's easy to miss, it's a few meters off the main path! 🧐

From the bank you have a very nice view of the Prüm Valley.

View of the Prüm River

Highlight • Viewpoint

Through the trees you can catch a glimpse of the Prüm on this section of the trail.
Unfortunately, the "Prümtalweg" does not lead to the river... 🧐

The path is just as well signposted in this direction as the other way around 👍

Stayed in the southern Eifel today because of the risk of thunderstorms, short, crisp tour 😁

"The path lives from the silence and seclusion in the Prümtal and the numerous waters that flow into it. The Prüm has dug itself deep into the rock here, creating a varied river landscape with terraces, breakthroughs and floodplain meadows."

The tour is very nice, what is a small drawback is the lack of seating. Of course there are opportunities to sit on fallen trees. But it's not exactly comfortable for a snack or something similar...

Quiet, unspectacular tour accompanied by the gurgling of the water in the background, switch off and enjoy the peace and quiet. Towards the end it gets tough with a gradient of up to 17% 😅
