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.

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.

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.

The car park is again very clear.
