This little tour is an ideal route for:

Tree of Tired Hiking Boots

Highlight • Structure

A small, funny eye-catcher on the Druidensteig. Probably someone started with it and now there are more and more (discarded) hiking boots on the tree of tired hiking boots.

Silbersee (Mahlscheid Lake)

Highlight • Lake

Basalt was mined at the site of the lake, popularly known as Silbersee, until the 1970s. The area is now a nature reserve, so if you come to the lake on a hike, please stay on the paths and only view the cliffs from a distance.

Meeting at Herdorf station

Highlight • Cafe

Passing the train station, we exit the town to a small ice cream parlour. A tip on hot summer days. Or on other days. :-)
