Route map

Routes from Cologne and Bonn through the Eifel to Trier and the French border at Perl/Schengen are complete; see Landschaftsverband Rheinland website for more details; there is a guide Jakobswege: Wege der Jakobuspilger im Rheinland: Band 2. For the Trier-Perl section, see also Irsch website.
Note: the Eifelverein maintains the Matthiasweg, which runs from Aachen to Trier; despite its name, this is not a pilgrim route.
