The Eifelsteig is a 313-kilometer long-distance hiking trail that traverses the Eifel region in a spectacular fashion from north to south—from the coronation city of Aachen, where Charlemagne once resided, to the Roman imperial city of Trier.
Under the motto “Where rock and water accompany you,” the Eifelsteig offers a unique combination of impressive rock formations and babbling brooks—a defining feature that accompanies hikers throughout their entire journey.
The Eifelsteig is complemented by 14 so-called partner trails—some of which are independent, while others run parallel to the Eifelsteig for certain sections. They offer the same high quality, are well-marked, and are ideal for day hikes.
Six of these partner trails run through the Rureifel.
