    An der Kall-Aue [G] | MTB-Tour Freifahrt Eifel

    Hürtgenwald
    Distance:21.9 km Duration:2:47 h Difficulty:Medium

    From the narrow Rur valley along the wooded valleys of Kallbach and Schlehbach, the route climbs up to the windy plateau of Schmidt. In terms of riding technique, the route is suitable for everyone, as apart from a steep, long single trail between Zweifallshammer and Schmidt, the route is mostly easy. Here you are directly connected to the national park information point in Zerkall with a parking lot, but you can also easily travel by train to Nideggen-Brück station. Parking is also available in Nideggen at Zweifallshammer, at Schmidt-Scheidbaum, in Kommmerscheid or in Mausbach.
