Eifel National Park cross-country trails (Wahlerscheid)

On the upland that continues the High Fens on the German side, Eifel National Park marks cross-country routes from the Wahlerscheid and Rothe Kreuz car parks on the B 258 between Schleiden and Monschau-Höfen. Each loop is 5 km, and they can be linked into 10 or 15 km through spruce forest and clearings. Information boards line the routes, and some footpaths are cleared for walkers. As this is a national park, stay on the marked routes, keep dogs on a lead and leave no litter. Tip: no rental is mentioned on site, so bring your own gear and check the Eifel snow report before setting off.
