    Hiking

    This Eifel view Effelsdach is, as the name suggests, above the Rur in the Effelsley area at a height of 275 meters above sea level. This group of rocks extends for about a kilometer and consists of numerous, closely spaced rocks. In the northern area there are several smaller rocks hidden in the forest, to the south of them there are mighty rock towers and walls.

    In a southwest to northwest direction you have a view of the northern foothills of the Eifel National Park, into the middle Rur valley and beyond to the plateau of the Rureifel.
