Auf Trittsteinen durch die Nister

Mostly the stones are dry and can be crossed in big steps. For children or small dogs it can be a bit difficult. Not recommended at high tide, as they are smooth and the water is deep. Since it is easier barefoot just a few meters down the river and with rolled-up trousers to cross the flat place through which the agricultural vehicles or riders must.

When the water is high, just take your shoes off and through, it hurts at first, but afterwards they feel like newborn at e

According to the information sign, this is where the actual "end of the world" is. Coming from Alhausen the path ends here at the Nister, on the right the steep cliffs and you can only go further via the "stone island".
When it is not flooding, the Nister can be crossed over large stones here - it works - mostly - quite well, but you also have to make a smaller jump from time to time. But since the water is not deep, there is no greater danger if you "miss" a stone ;-).
This is the "alternative route" World Heritage nature trail, which is signposted from the World Heritage lookout point - the route is very good and you can hardly miss the rest of the way.

Not a normal walk, on this path it goes steeply downhill in sections. Only suitable for experienced hikers .....

The Triittsteine are also called "Steinzel" and represent the actual "end of the world" after which the nature trail is named.

Beautiful, wild and romantic transition over the nest

Crossing the nest over the stones can be fun for young and old

This is where the wheat is separated from the chaff ...
A little adventurous jumping over the stones, but fun! 😃
But when you land in deep water ... 😬 cold and wet ...

Should you also try a bit higher water - it works too;)

Unfortunately nice!

It's an exciting place that requires a little courage to overcome ...

The detour is a must. Children should be offered a helping hand. But doable.

This crossing can only be used at low tide.

In winter, when the water is relatively high, the stones are not accessible. Next bridge only 1 km further 🤷

A fun and exciting change in the walk. Step through the stepping stones and jump to the other side. Very nice for big and small!

Very nice transition over the water 👍🏼

Crossing the Nister over the stepping stones is really fun. It may be a bit difficult for dogs, but in summer the dogs can usually swim through the water and cool off. But there is a bridge a little further in case you can't cross the stepping stones.

Didn't Jesus even walk across the water? A beautiful and impressive place.

The stones can be a bit slippery. The best thing to do is take off your shoes and walk over barefoot ...

wet feet are guaranteed here

Be careful if you are small, you would have to jump quite far, there is a larger gap in the middle. The alternative route, over the bridge near Ahlbach, is more interesting for climbers anyway.

like in the bible ... you walk on water
