Nordschleife Circuit Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Those who like to hike and also have something left for motorsport should hike around the Nordschleife.
With sturdy shoes and a bit of stamina, it should work.
Really worth seeing.

April 3, 2022,Hohe Acht Rundwanderung mit Nürburgring-Nordschleife

If you want to go very high in the Eifel, you have to climb the Hohe Acht (747m), the highest mountain in the Eifel. And if you want to be particularly fast in the Eifel, you have to go to the Nürburgring. Today we combine both on our Hohen-Eight circular hike.

November 26, 2022,Tour zur Hohen Acht und vorbei am Nürburgring

Unfortunately, I can't remember who I copied the tour from, but it's been around for a while.
At first it was cloudy, but in the end the sun even came out a little. Despite the wet conditions, the path was easy to walk on, albeit muddy.

The highlight was of course the race track, although we were also glad that …

January 24, 2023,HochEifel: WinterWonderland - Herrliche Schneewanderung rund um die Hohe Acht (einschließlich Nürburgring-Nordschleife)

It was just wonderful! Today we went very high, on the Hohe Acht (747m), the highest mountain in the Eifel.
Today's route also has something to offer for those who love high speeds: Part of our big lap took us along the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring - where today, however, only sled drivers were on the move.
The absolute highlight …

Anyone who likes the pure forest is in the right place here, "racing" at the end on the Nürburgring is also great. 😉

October 2, 2023,Hohe Acht Rundwanderung mit Nürburgring-Nordschleife (Eifel)

Start at the Hohe Acht hiking car park (highest mountain in the Eifel at 747m). The first highlight is the Kaiser Wilhelm Tower with a fantastic view of the neighboring low mountain ranges.
From here we quickly reached the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring. There we made the mistake and walked from the parking lot at the Nürburgring-Nordschleife directly to the …

September 25, 2022,Hohe Acht Rundwanderung mit Nürburgring-Nordschleife

Actually just a representation, we changed the round tour Hocheifel from Adenau and walked a lot along the Nürburgring.
At 12:00 the noise began and people despaired of humanity. The fuel could have cost four times as much, they would have raced on. Not to mention environmental protection.
We as hikers had to get through the spectators and were looked …

November 5, 2025,Hohe Acht Rundwanderung mit Nürburgring-Nordschleife 06.11.2025

The "golden October" has slipped into November in the Rhineland.

Nine hours of sunshine were forecast for today.

The perfect time to finally explore the Hohe Acht. After the maars near Daun, another highlight that I've been waiting years for.
