The enchanting Hammer Büsch describes a hillside forest that reveals a great view of the picturesque Hamm Castle. This late medieval fortification from the 14th century is the largest of the privately inhabited castles in the Eifel.

Hiking

A rustic hiking trail leads through the dense hillside forest. Between the branches and tree trunks, you can always catch a glimpse of the Prüm or the massive complex of Hamm Castle.
