    On the way up to the Koppenstein castle ruins, the dream loop leaves the forest path and continues up a beautiful forest path through a dreamy forest.

      The section belongs to the Gemünden Forest Nature Trail. Some information boards explain the animal and plant species that are at home here. Gemünden Forest Nature TrailThe nature trail in Gemünden is intended to point out the indispensable, irreplaceable and also priceless services and effects of the forest for us humans. The aim is to awaken understanding for the processes in nature. A densely wooded ridge, the Soonwald, rises southeast of Gemünden on the southern edge of the Hunsrück. With a length of approx. 40 km, it stretches from the Rhine valley near Bingen to the Hahnenbachtal northwest of Kirn. The approximately 5 km long educational forest trail provides insights into the interrelationships of the forest ecosystem. At more than 40 stations with numerous plantings, display boards on the subject of ecology, forests and forest communities, the visitor receives an orientation and experience aid. Trees, bushes, soil plants, mammals, birds and insects within the forest community are presented in detail.
