Eifgenbach

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.

December 4, 2022,E2 Auf alten Pfaden 04.12.2022

Nice round to relax on a Sunday morning. Bellinghausen is a beautiful village characterized by half-timbered houses.
Part of the way leads along the B51 or on paved side roads.
Then it goes down into the Eifgenbachtal. Direction Markusmühle, which is still being renovated since the flood of 2021.
Then it's along the Eifgenbach and a small climb on a …

nice round and also good to walk on dry ground. However, the area between km 3.0 and km 3.9 has been badly affected by clearing and the harvester. Even bridges over the Eifgenbach are over here and difficult to pass. there is a crisp climb with open roots between km 6.1 and km 6.5. You have to go up there. …

The E2 is a nice loop with a small drawback - the route through Hilgen. The small towns of Bellinghausen and Eschhausen are really pretty and it's fun to hike through. The path on the Eifgenbach is very beautiful. However, when the weather is good, it can get crowded here. After rainy days it remains boggy in some places …

May 9, 2024,Eifgenbach – Schöner Eifgenbach Runde von Burscheid

Super varied circular tour - often along the stream, over meadows and through forests.
At the beginning it goes quite steeply through the forest down a narrow path on the slope (which you have to go back up again at the end 😜..)
At the end of the tour there is a nice stop and reward with waffles at the …

Beautiful, slightly longer round, but without effort, in the Eifgenbachtal, along the E 2, A 3 and the Bergisches Streifzug Eifgenbachtal. Very worthwhile and with beautiful views and insights. We parked and boarded in Bremen, where parking is easy. This is no longer the way to the "Maria in der Aue" seminar house, but to the "Schloss Haniel" health camp. …

The tour has many beautiful sections. But here, especially when the weather is nice, there are a lot of people out and about, including mountain bikers. So be careful, especially on the ascents and descents - the paths are a bit narrower there.
