Bench with a view of the Moselle Valley vineyards

Highlight • Viewpoint

In itself a well walkable path. Occasionally there are slates on the way. When wet, caution is required due to the risk of slipping. If there is snow the ground is not recognizable and the path becomes risky.

Pirschweg Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A nice change for children if you walk up the path to the chapel here.
Figures are attached to the trees to look for along the way.
At the end there is an evaluation with a board.

Iron-rich spring with shelter and rest area

Highlight • Natural Monument

This sour spring is beautifully framed. The water is certainly not to everyone's taste. But the rest area next to it is in a beautiful landscape. Accessible via the Tatzelwurmweg.

July 26, 2025,Ruine Niederburg Kobern Gondorf Runde - Mathiaskapelle

A very nice hike from Kobern Gondorf train station. Great viewpoints. Benches to relax on. Also a small historic old town. I'd love to do it again.

August 5, 2022,Ruine Niederburg Kobern – Aussichtspunkt Runde von Kobern-Gondorf

Today, thanks to the cooler weather, we were able to run a slightly longer route that was a bit more strenuous. But this tour was just great!!! Thank you komoot for that.
At the beginning it went steeply uphill to the ruins, where the puppy, the big bad wolf and I crawled around. From there we went to the chapel …

May 24, 2026,Tatzelwurmweg und die Ruine - Kobern Gondorf

The hike began in the quiet alleys of Kobern-Gondorf and led steeply up into the vineyards. With every meter of altitude gained, the view opened up further over the Moselle valley. Between vines and old walls, there was a tranquility as if the landscape had forgotten its own time.
The Niederburg stood weathered above the valley, caressed by the wind …

April 5, 2025,Tatzelwurmweg Kobern- Gondorf🦁🐉, Runde von 🅿️Mühle (Landkreis Mayen- Koblenz)

The Tatzelwurm Trail leads over rocky paths to the Kobern-Gondorf Castle, the pilgrimage church of St. Matthias, and the Rosenberg plateau. The legendary Tatzelwurm, half lion and half lindworm, lived in the tunnel.

June 15, 2025,Urlaub Mosel - Ruine Niederburg Kobern 2025-06-15/64

Arrived home safely. Unpacked our suitcases. Laundry is in full swing. Everything's going well. Cappuccino in hand, we reflected on the last Moselle tour. We treated ourselves to a brilliant finale. The Lower and Upper Castles in Kobern, along with the Tatzelwurm Trail, were a worthy conclusion... Admittedly, we couldn't drive the shy animal out of its den, but the …

May 29, 2025,Tatzelwurmweg

First day of our Moselle days, and we set off immediately after arriving.

Today, following the trail of the legendary Tatzelwurm, we set out on stony and rocky paths up to the heights of Kobern-Gondorf.

Beforehand, we consulted the stone oracle at the Glückskäulchen at the beginning of the tour. We were lucky; the stone remained in the hole in …

#Beautiful narrow paths
#Castles
#Via ferratas

ATTENTION: Komoot messes up the order of the images. The via ferrata belongs in front of the castle (ascent)!

Hunsbuckel chose a different via ferrata to descend from the castle, as downhill is not my thing at all, I chose the path downhill that I had already taken and the path through the town. …

February 9, 2025,Schöne Wanderung zum Rosenberg und zur Matthiaskapelle von Kobern Gondorf

Very nice round with a wonderful view of the Moselle. My back was playing along, and exercise is good!😅 The cold didn't get much better or worse, and fresh air is good too!😉😂
In any case, it was a very nice round and the sun was shining too.🌞
In February, many restaurants are still closed, but you are almost alone …
