Panoramic Rest Area with View of Hochkelberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Nice view of the Hochkelberg. But also to Köttelbach to the "giant bench" at the grill hut of the traditional association. When visibility is good, the Aremberg can be seen in the distance.

Forest, wide views, meadows and today a lot of wind, which, depending on how it blows, makes the proximity to the Nürburgring audible.
Nice round, definitely with some lengths ....
The highlight is the Hochkelberg, at 675m the third highest mountain in the Hocheifel.
The 2nd part of the "Kelberger Wanderlust", alongside the Kelberger episodes.

I love panoramas!
So it is almost a matter of course that today - after the themed tours around the history route Vulkaneifel of the VG Kelberg - I also hike the Kelberg panoramas.
First of all: I am rewarded with lots of beautiful views and distant views.
