Description

The easy hiking tour leads to a panoramic view at the top of the Schilzenburg as the highlight.


From the start, the route leads through the village up to Schilzenburg Castle. Once at the top, there is a 360° panoramic view into the distance. At the top, the route heads towards Ittel. Shortly before the village, the route descends to the lowest and warmest point in Welschbillig. The way back offers a constant view of the church. A quiet forest path takes you back to the starting point.

The circular hiking trail is one of 20 uniformly signposted trails as part of the Trier-Land hiking trail concept.

    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.
