At over 450 m, the treeless Struffeltkopf rises up between Rott and Roetgen
The dramatic barren outcrop of Struffeltkopf lends its name to this varied hike between Rott and Roetgen. The route passes through a variety of landscapes around the Dreilägerbach dam and through the Struffelt conservation area with its upland moors, a home and habitat to many different species. Keen hikers will be rewarded along the way with stunning views and spectacular flora and fauna. Keep your eyes open: Along the route you’ll spot plenty of the fountain grass that’s typically found throughout Struffelt: a distinctive sight with its long stalks and fluffy ears.
