Park Eifel

Park Eifel is a recreation area in Gunderath featuring extensive forests, walking paths, and natural reserves across the Eifel region of North Rhine-Westphalia. The terrain supports rare wildlife and plant species within its undisturbed landscapes.

The area was designated in 2004 as a natural development zone and gained status as a protected wilderness area. This decision represented an early example of policy allowing nature to develop without human management.

The name reflects its location in the Eifel region, and guided tours introduce visitors to local wildlife such as black storks and wild cats that live here. These experiences connect people directly with the natural world around them.

The paths are wheelchair-accessible and offer specialized facilities for visitors with hearing or visual impairments. If you plan to explore the grounds, wear sturdy shoes and be prepared for varying trail conditions.

More than half of the grounds operate under complete natural freedom, with no human management or intervention. This creates wild habitats where natural processes unfold without planning or control.
