Leonie Private Camping

A quiet private grounds surrounded by nature near Simmerath, in the heart of the North Eifel. Electricity and water are available for an additional fee — the site doesn't promise much more than that. Otherwise, silence. The hiking trails start right at your doorstep: the Eifelsteig, the Westwallweg, the Ravel Route towards Rursee. Moist air drifts over the meadows each morning from the nearby Hohes Venn, until the sun burns away the fog. Aachen is about twenty kilometers away. The Belgian border is just next door.1

Sights in the area1

Urftsee near Einruhr

The Urftsee dams the Urft river inside the Eifel National Park, framed by wooded slopes. A lakeside path runs from Simmerath's Einruhr district, the quiet hiking day away from the Rursee crowds.

Struffelt Nature Reserve

The Struffelt near Roetgen is a heath ridge with a loop trail across moor and juniper. On a clear day the view reaches the High Fens — a short afternoon walk.

Hohes Venn (High Fens)

The High Fens spread out as a wide upland bog across the Belgian border, with boardwalks through peat and cotton grass. The go-to for cool, clear autumn days.

Aachen

Aachen sits about 22 kilometres away: imperial cathedral, Printen gingerbread and thermal springs in one. The rainy-day escape when the Eifel vanishes into drizzle.
