"Old Station" Schalkenmehren Passenger service between Daun and Wittlich was discontinued on November 1, 1981. Schalkenmehren. Approaching the Old Station in Schalkenmehren on the former railway line, today's Maare-Mosel cycle path, and seeing the station building, it's hard to believe that it was opened as a fourth-class railway station exactly 100 years ago. But how did it all begin 100 years ago? Surveying for the Daun-Wittlich railway line began as early as 1897. General preparatory work for the single-track line began in 1907. But it would take some time before the Daun-Schalkenmehren-Gillenfeld section opened on December 1, 1909, with the line running over the 28-meter-high Daun viaduct and through the 560-meter-long Schalkenmehren railway tunnel, "Großes Schlitzohr" (Great Sly Fox). The extension from Gillenfeld to Manderscheid to Pantenburg was completed on May 1, 1910, and the extension from Manderscheid-Pantenburg to Wittlich, signifying the completion of the entire line, was completed on July 1, 1910. The completion of the Daun-Wittlich railway line brought rapid development to the village of Schalkenmehren. In the first year of the line's existence (1910), 18,968 tickets were sold in Schalkenmehren, followed by 25,057 in 1913, 27,969 in 1919, and even 30,279 in 1922. In addition, Schalkenmehren station was designed for general cargo traffic and the receipt and dispatch of wagonloads.

Old Railway Tunnel "Großes Schlitzohr" near Daun At the end of the first decade of the 20th century, the railway tunnel was driven 560 meters through the mountain. 80 years later, it was converted into a cycle path. The tunnel contains several niches with rounded arches, through which the water seeping in above is drained. The sound of this water has been a part of this place for almost 100 years.

The train operated here from December 1, 1909 to May 28, 1988.

The historic, former train station building in Schalkenmehren has been lovingly restored and now contains two cozy holiday apartments... Trains have long since stopped running here, but many details still remind us of the "good old railway days". Today the Maare-Mosel cycle path Daun - Wittlich - Bernkastel-Kues runs along the old railway line and leads through beautiful Eifel and Moselle landscapes. The building contains two equally cozy and comfortably furnished holiday apartments for a maximum of 4 and a maximum of 8 people. The latter is divided in such a way that you can of course manage it there with fewer people.

Here the Endertbach falls 7 meters to the valley. The waterfall, the so-called "Rausch", is next to the old mills the most beautiful highlight of our hike through the Enderttal. Really worth seeing.

Beautiful waterfall in the valley. Nice place to take a break.

A few meters behind the Daun train station is the first highlight of a very beautiful route.
