Nature trail along Zülpicher Lake

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful hiking trail along Lake Zülpicher See, especially in spring, when the sun gives us its warming rays and the deciduous trees show us their first green leaves.

Highlight • Monument

The Weiertor is another entrance to Zülpich. It is only a proverbial stone's throw from the Bachtor.

April 17, 2024,Eifelverein Brühl : Zülpicher See , Neffelsee (Zülpich) – Uferweg

We changed our originally planned hike - Rabenlay, Dollendorfer Hardt - for safety reasons.

Eight of us made our way to Zülpich to the starting point at the water sports lake.

Following the shore path, we went around the lake and through the town center of Zülpich to the Neffelsee.

After a short break, we also walked around this.
