Nordic Walking Route - Valley of the Butterflies

Hike through the nature reserve "Ginsterheiden im Irsental" between Irrhausen and Daleiden

The hiking route crosses the “Ginsterheiden im Irsental” nature reserve and, in addition to healthy sporting activity, offers an intensive and unique natural experience.

In the Irsental, the naturally flowing waters of the Irsental ideally mesh with adjacent meadows, rocky ecosystems and coppice areas.

The "Weiland Route", named after the sponsor, leads over 9.9 km from Irrhausen over a section of hiking trail No. 13 and the Eifelgold Route to Daleiden, past the cemetery of honor and back to Irrhausen to the reservoir

Highlights along the way:

•    Idyllic valley of the Irsen
•    Golden yellow blooming gorse in the Ginsterheiden nature reserve
•    Valley of the Butterflies
•    Largest honorary cemetery in Rhineland-Palatinate: “Auf dem Scheid” on the southern edge of Daleiden
