Hiking

A very educational tour for geologically interested hikers. The nature park guide Klaus Emrich impressively gives an impression of the origins of the Vogelsberg, Europe's largest extinct volcano. A highly recommended, guided hike! The guided tours can be booked individually for small groups with Klaus Emrich. Telephone and information 0171-8626481 e-mail ige@eicheltal.de
