ヒレスハイムのおすすめツーリングルート

快適な裸足での散歩

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.

Starting from Hillesheim, the so-called "Bolsdorfer Tälchen" is a popular destination for walkers or hikers who just want to take a short stroll (although the path is also shared with cyclists). On a longer hike, the route can be easily planned as a stopover.

A mini-museum would be an even better description. While walking or hiking in the Bolsdorf Valley, you almost inevitably pass by it. A glimpse through the window was possible.

In the long-gone days of our grandparents, a central bakehouse was common for the village community. In many places, these were eventually demolished. Here in Bolsdorf, however, it has been preserved and still bears witness to the old days.

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

It's certainly a great way to experience something new, even if you haven't done it before. For a cyclist, the barefoot path is certainly not that important.

The cycle path between Kyllburg and St. Thomas is currently closed, you will be diverted via the road!
