Heidegarten auf dem Wabelsberg

Langscheid

The heath garden on the Wabelsberg near Langscheid is both a nature trail and a botanical garden and provides information about the characteristic plant species of the heath.

The heath garden on the Wabelsberg in Langscheid was created between October 2008 and July 2009 at the eastern end of the Wabelsberg plateau with 45 plant species.

The heather garden primarily has the following three objectives:
1. to appeal to visitors aesthetically and to get them interested in the subject of heathland in general.
2. to impart knowledge to interested parties in an easy and compact way.
3. the heather garden should become the starting point for the reintroduction of rare heather species.

Many rare plant species can also be found away from the heather garden and a large number of butterflies, beetles and insects can be discovered.

The ‘Bergheidenweg’ dream trail (starting point in Arft) and the ‘Wacholderweg’ dream trail as well as the ‘Langscheider Wacholderblick’ dream trail (both starting point in Langscheid) are a special experience for exploring the unique heathland areas. The unique Blumenrather Heide can be discovered on a hike along the ‘Virne-Burgweg’ dream trail.

Half-timbered village Monreal

The narrow streets of Monreal, its quaint Holy Trinity Church, the massive Nepomuk Bridge over the clear flowing Elzbach and the ruins of Löwenburg and Philippsburg castles high above the town are a perfect destination for an excursion in the eastern Eifel. The red and white half-timbered houses nestle closely together in the former cloth-making town. Not only visually is Monreal an excursion destination that relaxes the soul. Café Plüsch with its cosy interior or the former signal box at the gates of the town are perfect addresses for foodies. The highlight for lovers of handicrafts is the pottery in the old school. Hikers get their money's worth on the Monrealer Ritterschlag hiking trail and are rewarded for the sometimes steep passages with wonderful views.
