Beech forests along the Hill River

Highlight • Forest

One of the most beautiful beech forests I have seen so far with beautiful nature trails. With a bit of luck, you can also observe the natural phenomenon of hair ice in frosty temperatures.

Bridge Over the Getzbach

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

Normal bridge over the Getzbach, but nothing special. Due to the many stones in the stream bed, you can try to cross the river bed over the stones at low water.

May 21, 2023,🇧🇪 Vom Naturzentrum Haus Ternell zur Wesertalsperre

The tour is one of the numerous circular routes that can be made from the Haus Ternell nature center. The fantastic sections along the Hill at the beginning of the tour and the path at the Getzbach at the end are particularly beautiful. On the banks of the Wesertalsperre, the route follows a paved cycle path, which doesn't spoil the …

October 6, 2023,Vom Forsthaus Ternell zum Eupener Stausee

Today's tour was pure nature again! High up in the High Fens, at an altitude of almost 700 m, the Getz and Hill streams rise, both of which frame my tour today. On their long tour through the raised moor, their water turns completely brown, which can be clearly seen on long stretches of this tour.

I decided to go to Eupen on the spur of the moment, having planned the tour some time ago without knowing that it would be one …

April 6, 2025,Ab Ternell, entlang Hill, der Wesertalsperre und dem Getzbach - mit dem Eifelverein 🤩

Red flags are flying in the High Fens.

The plan is:
I'll start with my Eifel Club group from Haus Ternell, head towards the Fens, through the moor and over the footbridges and... and...
All pointless!

But I'm planning on going along the Hill and the Getzbach stream anyway, and so the loop isn't too short, I'm extending it to …
