Rund um Klausen - Hiking in the Moselle-Eifel
This hike leads through the landscape around the pilgrimage site of Klausen with its two districts of Krames and Pohlbach. These offer many "little escapes" for a quiet stop. The pilgrimage church "Maria Heimsuchung" is certainly one of them; it is visited by over 100,000 pilgrims every year and is considered a place of power with a history of over 500 years. Also worth seeing are the parish garden with its old tree population and the terraced abbey garden, where numerous herbs are planted on one level. The garden dates from the Wilhelminian period of the former monastery in the 15th century. Not to be forgotten are the artistic village fountains, which can be found in all three parts of the village. But the hiking trail "Around Klausen" offers more!
Insights into the hiking tour:
There are great views and along recultivated gravel pits rare animals, especially birds, have found a new home. On hot summer days the many fountains along the way provide some refreshment.
