This narrow path leads along a hill. In some sections, it descends steeply. Surefootedness is essential and a prerequisite. But it's no challenge for young and old. You'll enjoy beautiful views of the Rhine the entire way.

Great section with always terrific views. In some places, sure-footedness and a bit of a head for heights are required.

Hiking

Narrow path along the steep slopes of the Middle Rhine Valley between the Hartenberg vantage point and the Werlauer Pilz.
Sure-footedness and sturdy shoes required, medium risk of dizziness in some exposed areas. Partially slippery when wet.
At the Werlauer Pilz, signs recommend using the meadow path when it is wet!
