Der Friedensweg mit Panorama-Rundweg "Rebellen op Jück"

The start is at the Alfter cemetery (with parking). The ascent is via Buchholzweg to Hühnerbuschweg. Turn right here and pass the open-air hiking theater. After about 200 m, you will see the Alfter Jewish cemetery on the left. Continuing straight ahead, you enter the Friedensweg (peace path) laid out by Wilhelm Maucher. During the ascent, you will see the Blessing Christ on the right, a sculpture by Bonn sculptor Jakobus Linden. Before the closed gate to the “Heimatblick”, the path leads to the right with the first views of Alfter. After crossing the Brombeerweg, you come to the Blutpfad, which you follow to the left. Here you first have views of the Rhine valley towards Alfter, Bonn with Venusberg and the Siebengebirge mountains. Later, you can look towards Bornheim, Wesseling and Cologne. At the end of the Blutpfad, turn left onto Neuweg. First you see the pumping station and the elevated tank of Botzdorf, then the LSV observation tower “Fietzeks Weitsicht”. From the platform, you not only have a view of the quartz sand pit, but also of the “foothill villages” of Bornheim. The Neuweg trail continues along the quartz sand pit to the Hochzeitswiese meadow. This orchard meadow is part of the nature reserve “An der Roisdorfer Hufebahn”, which we now enter by turning left. At the end of the path, we turn right, heading southwest. Nach etwa 600 m endet der Weg, wir wenden uns nach links, Richtung Südost. Wir verlassen das Naturschutzgebiet und erreichen an der Alfterer Hufebahn die Gemeindegrenze von Alfter. Nach etwa 500 m zweigt rechts ein Pfad ab zur Alten Burg. Wir folgen dem Pfad um die Burg und verlassen ihn in Richtung Osten. Nach etwa 400 m sind wir am Aussichtpunkt des Heimatvereins Alfter „Böhling“. Von hier führt ein Pfad abwärts zur Kemmertsgasse, der wir nach links folgen. Nach wenigen Metern erreichen wir den Buchholzweg und rechts den Parkplatz am Friedhof, unseren Start- und Zielpunkt.

The panorama trail is not barrier-free!

Parking is possible at the Alfter cemetery, provided there is no funeral. Alternatively, you can park at Herrenwingert (near the castle) or at the end of Buchholweg (near the Buchholz manor house), but then you still have about 500 m to walk to the starting point.

From Bonn or Cologne, take line 18 to Alfter / Alanus University, then take line 882 to Hertersplatz. From there walk past the castle to the cemetery.
