Heckeneifel bei Konzen mit reichlich Weihnachtskrippen (Eifelverein OG Köln)
Mit Wanderführerin Eva vom Eifelverein Ortsgruppe Köln sind wir durch die Heckeneifel gewandert. Die heißt so wegen der teils 4m hohen Hecken, die dort traditionell gegen den Wind angelegt werden. Außer Hecken gab es auch moorige Landschaft, drei Weihnachtskrippen, den Westwall und viel Schneelandschaft zu sehen. Eine schöne Runde!

Today, another tour through magnificent scenery. Also, the ruins of a huge castle complex and a Celtic village. If possible, take the guided tour: A volunteer Celt provides insightful explanations and shows many details, including replicas of Celtic weapons and jewelry that you wouldn't normally see
