The Wild Trail (Wilder Weg), Eifel National Park

Discover the wild heart of the Eifel National Park without barriers. 💚"Wilder Weg" is a 1.5 km long barrier-free nature discovery trail. People with and without disabilities can experience nature at its best here - whether they are walking or visually impaired, blind, deaf or have learning difficulties.Note: There are often a lot of guests here at weekends and during the holidays. In your own interest, avoid busy times. We recommend traveling by public transport. 🚌A construction site sign, similar to the one you know from the motorway, shows the way. Nature is the builder. We expect the wilderness to be completed in around 250 years. But no one has to wait that long. The unspoilt terrain has been great to explore since it opened in 2014. A wide wooden walkway leads through the forest. The development of the windthrow area at the beginning of the path is particularly exciting. The storm Kyrill raged violently here in 2007. The fallen trees are still there today. Unlike in managed forests, nature in the Eifel National Park is allowed to develop without human influence.The most important "rules" for protecting nature: Stay on official paths, don't make fires or noise, keep dogs on a leash & take your rubbish with you. Thank you for your understanding! 💚

A wonderful path, enriched with information, in the middle of a great landscape. There is no better way to present nature to the visitor. A great path for young and old. You should have seen that! TOP!!!

The barrier-free nature experience area Wilder Kermeter is located in the middle of the Eifel National Park on the Kermeter mountain ridge. There, old and young visitors - with or without disabilities - can experience the "ecological heart" of the national park. On the ridge between Rursee and Urftsee, native mixed red beech forests grow on a large area.

Located in the middle, the Wilde Kermeter includes a barrier-free network of paths and a panoramic view of the lake landscape.

Part of this adventure space is the barrier-free nature discovery trail “Der Wilde Weg”: Ten mostly interactive stations provide information about wilderness, forest development and the biological diversity in the Eifel National Park, among other things. A wooden walkway through the forest wilderness allows special insights into nature.
