Kradenbach is located about 7 km north of Daun
and only about 4 km from the A1 exit Gerolstein
The starting point is at the hiking car park Ringstr. 7 in 54552 Kradenbach.
The path marked with EB leads us past the community center towards St. Florian hut, until it meets the Struth circular path. Follow the path to the left through the forest towards the industrial and commercial park. After about 500 m, arriving at the edge of the forest, it continues to the right to a viewpoint over Kradenbach and the upper Lieser valley. A bench invites you to linger here. At this point, our path leaves the Struth circular path. Continue straight along the forest edge, until the path leads right through the forest. After passing through it, we reach an earthen embankment on the edge of the Nerdlen/Kradenbach industrial and commercial park. Here the path then leads left along the embankment until it leads to the climb onto the embankment. Once at the top, we reach the next panoramic viewpoint over the beautiful Lieser valley. From here, the path continues on the embankment until it leaves it to the left. It continues through the industrial park to a crossroads where the Struth circular path is met again. We then follow this down to the beautiful Lieser valley. Here we cross the Lieser via the Eulen bridge, and on the other side, we reach the Lieser path and follow it towards the Lieser spring. After passing the trout ponds, the path turns left over a Lieser bridge to a mighty oak tree over 450 years old. Under the oak, our path leaves the Lieser path over the Dörrbach bridge back to Kradenbach and the starting point. There is a place to stop for food and drink in the Nerdlen/Kradenbach industrial park for hungry and thirsty hikers.
