Bike active in the volcanic Eifel

The Eifel is a low mountain range in the German states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate. Up until ten thousand years ago this area was still volcanically active and even nowadays the hills are still rising about 1 to 2 millimeters every year.

With its dramatic contrast between volcanic hills and still water, the volcanic Eifel is surely the highlight of the Eifel Region and this trip gives you the perfect opportunity to explore this stunning area by bike.

This fantastic cycling holiday will be based from the hotel. Either with a racer on quiet by the way roads, or on a trail bike through the volcanic landscape or on a adventure/touring bike, riding either along one of the abandoned railway tracks or down by the riverside.

You will find the perfect mix of relaxation and challenge whatever bike you come with.

With modern and spacious rooms complete with en-suite bathrooms and extremely comfortable beds, you’ll find it easy to unwind and relax during your free time! You can enjoy a refreshing drink on the sun-drenched terrace and dine in the restaurant, which features delicious traditional regional specialties.

In cooperation with MTBxpert, a specialised company for mountain bike riding, we at Hotel Wilhelmshöhe have much to offer for bikers and their bikes; from secure lockable garages, a dry room for wet clothes, laundry service, maps, and route ideas, ready to use GPS data and free planning, courses for beginners to gourmet weekends.

So join us for this wonderful experience of the Volcanic Eifel, all set in a friendly and social environment and if so wished, led by one of our experienced guides.
