On the 17.4 km long 4th stage, the hiker is immersed in the seclusion of nature, enjoys spectacular panoramas of lonely high plateaus and the rural and quiet idyll of small Eifel villages.

Insul - Sierscheid - Dümpelhardt - Liers - Linder Höhe - Kreuzberg

Through shady floodplain forests, you hike to Sierscheid. Up towards the Dümpelhardt you pass barren heath areas. The ridge offers fantastic views. Away from any development, it continues through meadows and forests into the Liersbach valley, steeply uphill to the Hönningen high plateau and through small woodland sections to the 487-meter-high Linder Höhe. The panoramic view compensates for the ups and downs. Slightly below the elevation is the impressive Krippenkapelle. Over moss-covered forest paths through open mixed forests, it goes down to the Ahr valley - here begins the Ahr wine-growing region. The stage ends at the station in the Kreuzberg district.

Insul - Sierscheid - Dümpelhardt - Liers - Linder Höhe - Kreuzberg

Through shady alluvial forests you hike to Sierscheid. Up to Dümpelhardt you pass barren heathland. The ridge offers fantastic views. Far away from any buildings, the route continues through meadows and forests into the Liersbach valley, steeply uphill to the Hönninger plateau and through small wooded areas to the 487-metre-high Linder Höhe. The panoramic view makes up for the ups and downs. Just below the hill is the impressive Crib Chapel. Over moss-covered forest paths through sparse mixed woodland, the route descends into the Ahr valley - this is where the Ahr wine-growing region begins. The stage ends at the railway station in the Kreuzberg district.
