Europäischer Fernwanderweg E8, Odenwald Ost

Cork (Ir) - Dublin (Ir) - Liverpool (GB) - Hull (GB) - Rotterdam (NL) - Nijmegen (NL) - Worms (D) - Donau (A) - Bratislava (SK) - Iwonicz-Zdrój (PL) - Border UA/PL

Covering 23.6 km, this demanding trail is best tackled by experienced walkers in good condition. Budget roughly 5 hours and 14 minutes or consider splitting it across two days.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start. Follow the E8 waymarkers throughout to stay on the official trail line.

This trail belongs to the International Walking Network (IWN) — one of Europe's most ambitious cross-border hiking networks. Waymarking and maintenance follow international standards throughout.
