Eifel · Simmerath

Steckenborn

A grass field in Simmerath, space for three to five motorhomes. Those wanting to go out can start their hikes and bike tours towards Rursee from here. The bus stop is right at the site, electricity and water available upon request. The host doesn't reveal much more. The rest is Eifel. Mountain air, and in the morning the wind sweeps across the grass. It's just a few curves to Urftsee near Einruhr, around 23 kilometers to Aachen.1

Sights in the area1

Rursee

The largest reservoir in the Rureifel, ringed by hiking and cycling trails; in summer, excursion boats cross between the landings. The obvious base for a long day outdoors.

Urftsee near Einruhr

The quieter neighbour of the Rursee, dammed by the Urft barrage. Paths lead straight from the shore into Eifel National Park — the calmer choice when the Rursee gets busy.

Eifel National Park

Germany's westernmost national park, with beech forests and a certified dark-sky reserve on the heights; on clear nights the Milky Way shows. The trip for anyone who likes it dark and wide.
