June 18, 2023,Dronketurm – Schalkenmehrener Maar Runde von Weiersbach
A beautiful tour with 85% shady paths. If there are dogs, it is recommended to turn the tour around. The beginning is only in the forest and with many water refreshing opportunities. The last 6km are just the opposite and temperatures like today -32 degrees can be very exhausting.

Day 2️⃣ blogger hiking on the Eifelsteig:
Section of stage 11 of the Eifelsteig through the Liesertal to the Dauner Maaren
+++
The whole stage 11 leads over 23.6 km from Daun to Manderscheid. We hike around 13 km from Tettscheid to the Gemündener Maar.

Showing Translation

A slightly shortened stage of the Eifelsteig. We start in the village of Tettscheid and hike down the Lieserweg to fish ponds. Here we are now on the Eifelsteig and it goes along in the Liesertal. Wonderful nature! You can even see water buffalo along the way. The herd keeps the area free in the summer months.

15 kilometers, 450 meters in altitude, mostly on more or less easily accessible paths, rarely on paths
Start in Schalkenmehren at the chargeable car park (day ticket €3.50)


I can roughly classify this hike into three different characteristics.
First of all, it goes past the beautiful three maars Schalkenmehrer Maar, Weinfelder Maar and Gemünder Maar. …

Used this app for the first time today. Downloaded it yesterday from the Appstore due to the high number of users. App worked well for me, just drains a lot of battery from phone. But I think you can save electricity with the offline map. This will be tested next time.
