Pejo (Peter-Josef) Weiß (*1926 2012) would be delighted with the hiking trail that bears his name. Fascinating nature experiences, places steeped in history and romantic paths make it a constant adventure.
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.
The second stage of the Wildnistrail as a family hiking tour leads from Vogelsang IP to the Urft dam wall for about 7 kilometers through the nature of the Eifel. The hike can easily be combined with a boat trip.
