Today's tour started again at the Weisser Stein motorhome park and initially leads down into the valley via a path, which soon turns into a paved forest road. Larger parts of the tour run on paved, partially asphalted forest roads. Given today's winter conditions, these impressions predominate and the paths are partly covered with snow. In summer, however, I would choose a different route or starting point. Overall a nice round trip, especially recommended as a snow hike. The motorhome park at Weisser Stein, located at an altitude of just under 700m, offers an ideal starting point for this. Supply and disposal as well as electricity are provided for €20. Another highlight here is certainly the fact that you are in one of the few star parks in Germany. Best regards Olaf

Winter dream in the source area of the Kyll

Minus 13.5 degrees, 20 cm snow cover, plus a radiant blue sky, our winter dream has come true, in the source area of the Kyll between Frauenkron and Udenbreth. Our circular route (just under 13 km, 150 m elevation gain) rises gently from Frauenkron through the Lewertbachtal to Udenbreth, which is why we chose Frauenkron as the starting point. Before Udenbreth, the Matthiasweg of the Eifelverein leads us through the Wilsamtal and the Kylltal back to the starting point.
In the warmer season, the source area of the Kyll is a habitat for dipper, kingfisher, grey wagtail, and black stork; numerous information boards point to this. But now, a dense snow cover lies over streams and meadows, only the tracks in the snow indicate a rich presence of wildlife.
