Hiking

Not half as crowded as at the Loreley and also a fantastic view of the steep slopes of the Middle Rhine Valley. The hiking hut invites you to take an extended break.

Hiking

From here you have a remarkable view of a total of 34 villages in the Hunsrück, Taunus and Rhine valleys. During the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) troops of the Swedish King Gustav Adolf had marched along the Rhine and had set up military positions at various points. In Dörscheid, too, the name “Schwedenschanze” goes back to these war events.
