Tips

The Vischelbach is a 10.5 km long tributary of the Ahr. The Vischelbachtal nature reserve offers a wonderful nature experience. Continuing along the circular hiking trail you come to Vischel Castle (first mentioned in 893). After many changes of ownership, the moated castle is now privately owned and is a listed building. On the way to Berg you pass the Naturfreundehaus (Sat & Sun 12pm-5pm coffee, cake and more). So hiking enthusiasts, put on sturdy shoes (you need them parallel to the Vischelbach and Gierenbach at this time of year [it was wet and muddy]) and head out into nature at the 'Gateway to the Eifel'.
