"Do the fairies live here? It wouldn't be surprising if they appeared here in the Schneifel between the trees.
The hiking trail leads along winding paths deep into the highest forest in the North Eifel Nature Park - it seems enchanted and mystical. In summer, when the temperatures are high, it stays pleasantly cool in the shade of the trees. But even if the fairies don't show up, the Schneifel Moore Path isn't stingy with charms. It leads to the headwaters of the Alfbach, which is fed by dozens of rivulets, moors and ponds. Boardwalks lead through particularly sensitive areas in order to protect the flora and fauna. Rare plants like the bell heather or the forest lousewort are there to be discovered.
About halfway, the forest backdrop opens up to the grandiose "Three Country View". The platform is a great place to relax and when visibility is good, you can see as far as the Islek, Ösling and High Fens mountain ranges.
On the way back it's time to dive into the shady forest again - maybe you'll see a fairy after all?" 🧚

"The Schneifel is a region in the Eifel that was constantly alternating between war and peace. In doing so, it and its inhabitants overcame many borders - both internally and externally. Today, land and people between Kronenburg, Schwarzer Mann, Schönecken and Birresborn found her peace. Strengthened by her experiences. Again and again, limits in life challenge us to overcome them. Often it is only when we change our perspective that we realize whether they were supposedly a misfortune or even an enrichment. Encouraging on the path to peace Boundary stones at selected places on the hiking tour, to pause and think about yourself and your own (limitations)."

"War and peace were close together in the Schneifel. They left traces and at the same time shaped the strength and grace of the Eifel region. As deceptive as the hump line of the West Wall was at the time, it is just as peaceful today. Rare ones cavort under the protection of their remains Animals, extraordinary plants thrive. The Calvary was of a highly explosive nature at the time. Today, as one of the largest man-made craters of our time, it is a silent memorial to the turmoil of war. The border region with Belgium has many places of this kind. And right in the middle? The way of peace, of inner contemplation."

"(Daily) life is a constant up and down, a yes and a no, a forward and a backward. Once you have dared to step off a well-trodden path or crossed a border, you realize what new, unimagined possibilities and ways are revealed."

Since I still had work to do in Prüm today, the tour was a good idea. When we started walking it started raining and we didn't have to take off our ponchos. Beautiful mystical atmosphere in the very quiet forest. It was mostly wide forest paths, but that wasn't bad …
