ホーエンフェルスエッシンゲンのおすすめツーリングルート

For those with time, a visit to the Eagle and Wolf Park is certainly interesting.

In Bolsdorf, a small village a few kilometers from the center of Hillesheim, which hikers or walkers can reach, for example, via a path through the "Bolsdorf Valley," there is a beautifully maintained chapel. The church has been entrusted to Saint Margaret as its patron saint. Visitors will find her statue on the left side wall in front of the apse. She holds a palm branch in one hand, the symbol of martyrdom in Christian iconography. Opposite her on the right side wall is Anthony of Padua, dressed in the classic Franciscan habit. The keystone on the ceiling of the nave displays several dates—the oldest, 1505, the consecration date—and in the center, the Lamb of God with the victorious banner, a symbol of the conquest of death and suffering.

Million dollar view of the castle

The pig iron ladle car was moved from its old location on Römerwall to Jünkerath station, 500 meters away, at the end of June 2025, and can now be admired there. Coming from Bahnhofstraße, simply enter the station and exit at the back to the Park-and-Ride parking lot on Gewerkschaftsstraße. https://www.eisenbahnmuseum-juenkerath.de/umsetzung-des-juenkerather-roheisenpfannenwagens-teil-17897a0b9

A well-maintained cycle path runs around the maar, and beautiful views are guaranteed.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to cycle directly around the maar.

For information about the chapel, built between 1902 and 1903, see e.g. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erl%C3%B6serkirche_(Mirbach) or https://eifelfuehrer.de/touristische-ziele/kirchenkloester/erloeserkirche-mirbach
