Unfortunately, the water is extremely polluted by the de-icing systems of the nearby US Air Base.

This is a nice part to ride through. The sun rays shine through between the gaps in the trees. Ascending slows you down but it is enjoyable to ride through

The Ramstein castle ruin is located on a roughly 182-meter-high colourful sandstone rock. Originally, it was created in the 10th century as a fortified farmstead and was expanded in the course of the 14th century into a feudal castle of the Electorate of Trier. Today, the approximately 25-meter-high residential tower on the west side, as well as parts of the still towering ring walls, are mainly preserved. These still show recognizable architectural details such as seating niches, fireplaces, and remains of spiral staircases.
