You can explore 30 pear varieties along the trail. Did you know there are actually that many? On this circular hike, they play a central role along the route. Artfully carved wooden rest areas invite you to linger and picnic.

Nice hike. In the spring at the flowering time with many different flowers, from rapeseed to flowering cherry and pear trees to flowering lilacs.

You can park east of Lantershofen at the parking lot, south of the L 83 on the red wine trail. From there you just have to cross the street and start the hike.

Yes, it refers to the Lantershofen Pear Circular Trail (Grafschaft municipality), which extends directly north of Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler through the Grafschafter Ländchen.
The trail owes its name to Lantershofen's old tradition as a "pear village". Numerous fruit trees stand along the route, including a pear variety garden with over 50 different, partly old pear varieties.
Lantershofen used to be the …

With the autumn leaves maybe even more beautiful than the first time ...
A nice (short) hike with moderate inclines, beautiful views and nice resting places. The art along the way makes the tour even more interesting and right at the beginning there is a red wine hiking trail feeling 😉.
However, clear street noises accompany the hike in several …

Too much asphalt. The road noise doesn't fade away until about 5 km later. Even the dirt road is busy, kicking up a lot of dust.
Only the last 3 km through the vineyards were pleasant.

The path, which was beautifully described as a family-friendly circular path, turned out to be a "never again" path
The first 3.5 km on asphalt through the village and along the country road with traffic noise. He then accompanied us on almost the entire tour due to the constant proximity to the motorway or federal highway. Also in the vineyards. …

A varied and educational circular hike above Lantershofen via Ringen and back. Because pears have been growing here for centuries and they have their history.
The tour is very well signposted with the pear. Since Lantershofen with its beautiful old half-timbered houses is fun to look at, I thought it would be nice to start the tour like that.

After another longer hiking break, I was looking for an easy tour again, and I definitely found it with the Birnen-Rundwanderweg. However, those who are not just out and about with a bicycle, stroller, or wheelchair should rather choose one of the numerous other, significantly more beautiful hiking trails in the Ahrtal.
