 “Rebellen op Jöck” - this circular trail commemorates the ‘Vorgebirge rebel’ Wilhelm Maucher (1903-1993) and the resistance with which the ‘Landschaftsschutzverein Vorgebirge (LSV)’ opposed the extraction of quartz sandstone in the mid-1990s. The path in the “border area” of the municipalities of Alfter and Bornheim not only leads past sights such as the Jewish cemetery in Alfter, Maucher's Peace Path and the Old Castle, but also offers a fantastic view of the Rhine Valley, the Siebengebirge, Bonn and the foothills.

Cologne-Bonn region: popular circular hiking trail

 

The trail starts at the Alfter cemetery, leads up towards “Heimatblick” past the Jewish cemetery and the Friedensweg. There it leaves Alfter territory and follows the Bornheimer Blutpfad trail to the LSV observation tower “Fietzeks Weitsicht”. The route continues along the “Quarzsandgrube” nature reserve to the “Hochzeitswiese”. There the path turns off again towards Alfter. Through the nature reserve “An der Roisdorfer Hufebahn”, the trail leads to the old Alfter castle. From there, it is only a few meters to the “Böhling” viewpoint. The tour ends on the way back to the Alfter cemetery.
