Discover the traces of the "Westwall" in the Islek on a tour through history. We hike the western loop and part of the eastern route, as well as a section south of Kesfeld. Hiking guide Albert Thiex explains the significance of the Westwall, built between 1936 and 1940, whose concrete humps dominate the landscape of the Eifel - a controversial defense system with a turbulent history.

Afterwards, the Gasthaus Kaut in Leidenborn invites you to stop for a bite to eat.
