Hikes in Kolverath

From Kelberg, follow the history route to the summit of Hochkelberg. To the youngest maar in Ulmen. Here sit the remains of the castle of Heinrich von Ulmen, a crusader.

The Kelberger Panoramas is a walking route in the true sense of the word. Gentle ascents lead to Vulkaneifel heights, giving hikers a view over the landscape shaped by volcanism.

At unusual places, the nature of the Elz valley reveals itself from new perspectives. Along the route, you will find many surprises from suspension bridges to the treehouse.

The Hochkelberg Panorama Path connects the Hillesheim Limestone Basin via the nature and landscape conservation area around the Hochkelberg with the Ulmen Maar. Recommendation: to hike the path in 2 stages

History to hike along: The History Route connects quiet volcanic landscapes with exciting stories – from Roman times to today, experienced step by step.

The route hike takes us along the history road with 15 stops to the Hochkelberg. From here we hike to Uersfeld with its parish church.

Beautiful, varied circular route (partly following the history road), initially without significant inclines, from the ascent to Hochkelberg noticeable climbs. In autumn, partially slippery/muddy paths during the descent.

▶ The hike begins on Trail 34: From the starting point,Parking Lot 01, head into the forest and around MosbrucherWeiher 02, the source of the Ueß River; where (after 15 minutes) the Vulkanweg (V) veers sharply right up a dirt road. Follow this road downhill and turn back toward the edge of the forest; in the forest, cross a spring ditch and walk for 10 minutes near the forest edge; as soon as Trail 2 joins from the fields, continue another 100 m, but at a fork (with Trail 2), head uphill. Take the next cross-trail to the left, cross a body of water, and behind it, next to its spring ditch, climb steeply uphill. At the top, take the cross-trail to the left around the forest slope; before this trail begins to descend more steeply, turn sharply right and climb to the forest road intersection at Hochkelberg.Follow Trail 1 up toSummit 03 (panoramic view and rest area) and then back down to the intersecting Trail 34. Turn right onto this trail, following it along the base of the Hochkelberg, always in this direction.From the edge of the forest (which is also Trail 1a), continue straight ahead (!) through meadows, past some sheds, with a distant view of the Hohe Eifel, until you reach a paved road.Now take the Vulkanweg (V), pass in front of thewater tank 04, turn right next to it, and at the edge of the forest turn left downhill toward the K 89. Follow this road downhill, but turn right before the Sassen town sign—roughly opposite a wayside shrine—onto the upper field path on the right, which circles the Bittberg with magnificent views of the countryside.At the end of the field, simply cross the K 89 and take another dirt road, which descends behind a small storage area back to the starting point.
