Kleine Kyll Stream

Highlight • River

Idyllic leads the way along the small Kyll. Continue up to Wolfsschlucht. There is a bypass for cyclists. If you are willing to carry and push the bike a bit, the ascent in the Wolfsschlucht is also worthwhile!

April 18, 2025,Eifelbike Springbreak Tour 2025
EifelBike Springbreak 2025 with a very extensive cake buffet that left nothing to be desired. Around 150 participants, my role: MTB guide

Today I did the spring break tour MTB Manderscheid, a really great tour.

I started at the Himmerod monastery, the tour leads largely along the Salm to the Meerfelder Maar.

At the Meerfelder Maar you should take a break on one of the numerous benches and chill a bit :-)

First half of today's stage. At one point, we found ourselves in the middle of a harvester's track – really bad.

The Wolfsschlucht was barely rideable, but exciting.
