Day started with drizzle 🌧️. Driven through a lot of nature, whereby the landscape gradually changed, i.e. the Kyll river became ever wider. From Junkerath you drive on the former Quervennbahn 🛤️🚇, which then goes far into Belgium.
There were also other sights: Dechent Tunnel, Linden healing spring, Helenenquelle, former Cistercian monastery, Bertradaburg, Löwenburg castle ruins

Since we arrived at the idyllic campsite on the Kyll River by 3 p.m., we still had time for a stroll around Kyllburg. It was a bit depressing (so many empty houses, hardly anyone around...), but the collegiate church was worth seeing, especially the cloister!
