After the Roman city of Cologne was founded "Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensum" and the population growth there, the task was to supply the residents with fresh drinking water. The pipeline built for this purpose from the Eifel, which overcomes all landscape obstacles over almost 100 kilometers with a natural gradient, is an engineering masterpiece.

It's easy to walk past it carelessly if a car is parked in front of it.

The Roman Canal hiking trail from Nettersheim to Cologne is 116 km long. The ancient canal is an engineering masterpiece of the Romans and crosses valleys and pierces mountains for 96 km. With the help of the canal, Cologne was supplied with clear and soft Eifel water around 2,000 years ago. Source: eifel.info/wandern/top-wanderwege/roemerkanal-wanderweg
