Blick auf den Burberg Schutz

The Burberg in Schutz is the namesake of this hike. The unique volcanic mountain offers cultural treasures due to the remains of a Roman fortification from the 4th century.

The tour starts in the small village of Schutz, directly at the St. Wendelin Chapel. The route continues for about 8 km through the forest to Deudesfeld. The small idyllic fish pond behind Deudesfeld invites you to take a short break. The unspoilt nature around Schutz is a real hiking experience that will stay in your memory. The Speicherbach now accompanies the hiker for several kilometres of the trail until it flows into the Kleine Kyll.

Insider tip: Plan a detour to the Burberg shortly after the start (footpath about 1.4 km). From the very top you have a fantastic view.

The Burberg, also known as Burgberg, Buerberg or Schutzer Kopf, rises in the Volcanic Eifel Nature Park. It originated as a volcano about 11,000 years ago.

Highlights along the way:

• 0.4 km view of Burberg

Der Weg selbst ist top beschildert und führt zum großen Teil durch Wald, allerdings ist es meist ein recht gut ausgebauter Wirtschaftsweg. Insgesamt gibt es wenig zu sehen, zumal der Weg, wie bereits von anderen erwähnt, nicht über Burberg selbst führt, was sehr schade ist. Die Aussicht von dort ist sicher grandios, aber zum Abschluss des Rundweges erfordert dieser Aufstieg dann doch noch mal einiges an Kondition.

Schöner Wanderweg mit sehr viel Wald, aber schade das der Weg nicht direkt über den Burberg führt. Den hätte man eigentlich bei dem Weg mit einbinden müssen. Die Sicht vom Burberg ist phänomenal.
