The Wild Path in the Eifel
Selected alternatives for you
The animals of the forest are great designers of wild nature and create concrete art to marvel at. An extensive walk in the Eifel Nature Park with family on the “Wild Path” shows this to us once again.

A wide path leads through the tall beech forest, the mighty trunks stand like pillars in a cathedral on the right and left of the path, forming a light green dome above us with their crowns.

We start at the spaciously designed hiking parking lot at Kermeter Forest, which also serves as a stopover for a few motorhomes on their holiday journey. The adventure begins child-friendly with the “Wild Path,” which leads as a boardwalk through the natural forest and offers a new surprise after every bend with tangible works of art from nature.
