Whether classic or with an e-bike: On the Eifel cycling loops, you experience diverse routes through the low mountain range and agricultural landscape, past meadows and forests, as well as along open river valleys such as the Erft, Ahr, Urft, and Olef. The routes range from enjoyable and relaxed to sporty and challenging.
Experiencing nature up close
Guided Ranger tours in the Eifel National Park, hikes with the Eifel Association, and seasonal natural highlights such as the daffodil bloom in spring or the gorse bloom in summer deepen your nature experience.

Enjoy under the starry sky
When the day ends, a phenomenon that has become rare begins: In the Eifel Star Landscape, the night sky reveals itself with impressive clarity.
Sparkling stars, the Milky Way visible to the naked eye, and guided sky observations make the night the special highlight of your active time.
