Overnight stay in the Fischerhütte in the Kylltal:
"Suddenly a crazy roar in the air; the valley seems to vibrate; two times two triangular wings appear, surprisingly slowly, in the sky and cover the quiet Kylltal with an enormous carpet of noise that buries everything under it.
We become very small and subdued, persevere, stare at the sky in horror.
A booming intrusion into the peace of the evening.
Airbase on tour.
(F-35A - These are the stealth jets that are newly based here since the war ☮️🇺🇦.)
The cold air falls down the slopes of the Kyll valley in milky plumes.
It gets cold.
Really cold.
We spontaneously set up our "warming" tent in the middle of the hut, hoping for a little less strenuous temperatures, especially since we are lying on the stone floor with only the thin aluminum mat down for protection.
It's going to be a quiet night.
Cold but bearable.
Good tent."

"Suddenly it's there, just past Speicher, down in the deep valley of the Kyll.
Located on the Mühlenweg, the first hiking trail of the day, we come across an angler's home.
Slightly getting on in years, fabulously decorated with cobwebs, with latently erotic wall paintings from the fifties(?), one half of the house is unlocked and lures with the wall inscription:
"Welcome to the quiet Eifel pilgrim who is reading the book of nature."
Well, if that's not an invitation.
We'll follow her immediately.
Almost immediately.
If it weren't for the other non-pilgrims who have littered this friendly place in such a way that I lose any feeling of staying overnight.
Courageously friend KC gives the house husband; Clean up is the order of the day.”

The Kylltal is a very idyllic one. It's fun to run with nice little moments.

Nice little river that can get violent too. The southern Eifel is a beautiful area and can be wonderfully hiked.

The path along the Kallenbach over the old railway line, although asphalted, beautiful.
