Hiking Trail Igel 2

Before the tour begins, the ruins of a moated castle, the "church", the "deanery", the "Hermenbrunnen" and the "Hermenköpfe", offer a magnificent insight into the eventful past of this village. Through one of the two former "city gates" the trail leads over a moat towards "Schilzenburg". From a distance you can spot the former monastery "Helenenberg". Worth a visit is the baroque church. Before entering a quieter part of the forest, the path now leads along a main road for approx. 200 m Another highlight is the "Geiderkreuz". The idyllic place invites you to linger. Cross the "Kreuzweg" at the "Schankstor" (former city gate) and head back to the starting point.

Weilerbach - Hohllay

Beginning with a beautiful view across the stunning woods of the Meulenwald forest, on sunny days enabling you to seethe highest hills of the Hunsrück next to the Moselle valley, this trail has a lot to offer. Further along, near the western end of Rodt, the breathtaking view reaches from the Kylltal over the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg to the softly rising hills of the southern Eifel.

Along the path more than 21 different tree species can be seen.

The tour is very entertaining and great for a walk. The combination of the river and the hillside makes the appeal. A stop at the ``Gruthenhäuschen``, a reconstructed Roman tomb temple, reveals the Roman influence in the region.
