クロイツアウの山小屋＆キャビン・トップ20

The cross has apparently been replaced by a stone one in the meantime. The shelter of the same name is located on the opposite side.

This former watermill was built in the 17th century and competed with the older Lukasmühle further down the valley. Destroyed by flames in 1982 - rebuilt and badly damaged in the 2021 flood. Open again on weekends since summer 2023. The gable on the main house is dated 1663. Beautifully restored quarry stone half-timbered building.

Shelter on the Schilsbach, the Schilsbachtal goes to Woffelsbach.

Simply a dream for hiking, a bit steep ascent to go well

Well-kept refuge (closed on 3 sides) with space for 6-8 people. On the corner, creative art with a chainsaw - a gem from an unknown forest worker. Regular emptying of the garbage can.

Away from everyday life, almost enchanted and well hidden in the Kall Valley, lies the tourist inn, one of Germany's oldest watermills, the historic Mestrenger Mill. Built in 1663, the mill has always been a popular destination. During World War II, the mill served as a hospital for wounded soldiers. In 2011, the building was extensively restored, but in keeping with historical models. Since then, the mill has become an even more ideal place to take a break, recharge, and rest.

"... Away from everyday life, almost enchanted and well hidden in the Kalltal between Hürtgenwald-Vossenack and Nideggen-Schmidt, lies the excursion restaurant, one of the oldest watermills in Germany, the historic Mestrenger Mühle. The Eifel National Park and other wildly romantic landscapes offer ideal hiking opportunities and the mill is an ideal place to take a break, where you can strengthen yourself and regenerate. Since its construction in 1663, the house has experienced an eventful history. Known and loved as a destination for excursions in the North Eifel for generations, things have gotten a little quiet around the mill in recent years. ..." https://der-eifelyeti.de/2018/02/13/mestrenger-muehle/ Today the excursion restaurant is closed, the area is a construction site... +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ The Mestrenger Mill in the "Battle of All Souls": The mill itself changed hands several times during the fighting. The owner at the time, Peter Dohr, died in April 1945 as a result of "mine effects". Fate that many residents of the region had to share until well after the war...

Great hike
