Eifgenbach

Highlight • River

After large amounts of rain, the Eifgenbach can also become uncomfortable. Experienced it yesterday and therefore had to take a detour up again to Thomas-Hof to avoid the Eifgenbach.

April 22, 2023,"Das ist der Weg" Schöne Tour am Eifgenbach

Wonderful tour on the picturesque Eifgenbach with some steep descents and ascents. The course of the tour often follows unmarked paths. I would recommend sure-footedness. There is a nice place to stop at Thomashof (at the beginning/end of the route), with a well-stocked farm shop.

Nice round, but exhausting. Due to storm and high tide, some sections of the route can no longer be found. A bridge no longer exists. As a result, the route has become a little longer by walking back and forth.

At the beginning the route was a bit confusing and the path wasn't in good condition, but it got better afterwards, until just before Thomashof, where it's nice to go through the stinging nettles again...

It was a very adventurous hike. Very rough terrain, many root paths. Extremely muddy and slippery. We had to go further than planned because our transition no longer existed. The Eifgenbach is currently carrying a lot of water, which also flows with a lot of force, so we decided to go further to reach the next bridge.
As a reward, …

Hello, everyone.

Today we finally went back to the mountains.
Destination: Thomashof in Burscheid.
Parked there in the parking lot, it started immediately.
First little shock, the gate to the entrance to the hiking trail was locked. Just asked in the farm shop.....
It was locked because of the cows. You had to squeeze through the wire

Cheerful hike with sometimes very steep up ⬆️-, down ⬇️- and intermediate steps 🔃⛰️.
Very scenic, very green 🌲 and often along the stream and river.

As a reward there was delicious food 🍖🍻 in the always good Thomashof

There is a wonderful place by the river that invites you to rest. There is a rattan chair. It feels like from another time! You can also lie down or sit in the water for a short time. Splendid!
