Hiking

Some paths soon fall into oblivion and can then perhaps no longer be hiked...

Hiking

Various routes are possible - even in the rain. But sturdy hiking boots are important when it rains. There is a cave entrance (1st photo) and a wall with exposed debris. In it you can find fossils, lots of sandstone but also chunks of ore (3rd photo). The middle photo (No. 2) shows the view of the Aggertal near Ehreshoven-Vilkerath, which is definitely worth seeing.
