Half-timbered Houses of St. Aldegund

Highlight • Historical Site

A beautiful town center – so many half-timbered houses with so many details. It's worth taking a closer look and a stroll through the town. Truly quaint!

Located in a bend in the field path, there is a somewhat inconspicuous bench that offers a wonderful view of St. Aldegund.

Bench with a view of the Moselle

A really great view, but if you come from below, the bench is desperately needed after the tough climb.

St. Aldegund on the Moselle is one of our (by now quite a few) favorite places ...
and therefore always good for an affair !!


So we go on the same Moselle fling, rock-barrel-half-timbering.

Ok, we should have gone to a wine cellar for the barrels, but the rest is very suitable.
The historic center of St. Aldegund has a …

Found the route quite well.

Next time at the crossroads (when the path meets the wide forest path) I'd rather take the short option to the left and go straight to Raulwing-Platz!
You can save yourself the approximately four kilometer long high route of the side jump over the Moselle heights and only then to Raulwing-Platz. Nothing special.

A very beautiful circular route up to the stretch at Hochheid, where there is now a solar park. You walk a good part of it through a corridor lined with high fences and solar panels.
Otherwise: Pretty half-timbered houses in the pretty St. Aldegund, an enchanted path through boxwood and lichen, and every now and then great views of the …

For the first tour of the year, we went back to the Moselle to the small wine village of Sankt Aldegund. A really beautiful place with a great historic town center. Due to the time of year, there were hardly any places to stop for a break. At the beginning of the circular hiking trail, it's a sporty climb up …

The beautiful weather had to be used and so I recently discovered the side jumps via the Moselsteig website. The kids and I mastered the first one today - absolutely worthwhile and also really good to walk with children! A great corner on the Moselle with beautiful views. My personal highlight was the box tree path... I didn't even know …

First of all: Sorry for the many photos! Somehow got away with me... ;o)

And: Some of the paths listed on Komoot are incomplete and wrong, so I'll have to correct the maps a bit in OSM first.

Also: The tour has its weaknesses, but also fantastic highlights! If you don't necessarily want to put kilometers on the clock, you …

"... Hikers interested in cultural history will get their money's worth here. The path begins in the historic center of St. Aldegund with its half-timbered houses and the "old church" from the 12th century Moselle view and slate dry stone walls can be experienced. The path through one of the largest occurrences of the wild boxwood on the Moselle …
