    Hiking

    Before the tourists were transported to the Niederwald monument by cable car (since 1954), this was done from 1884 to 1944 by a cogwheel train powered by the SAAR, a steam train with 360 hp. Today the tracks have been dismantled, but the route and a bridge still bear witness to the route through the vineyards.

    Hiking

    A cogwheel railway used to go up here, now a beautiful hiking trail right next to the vineyards. The great view from up here, a dream. :-)

    On this ascent, the old cogwheel trains used to go up to the Niederwald every 20 minutes. The route was 2.3 km long, the slope was about 103 per thousand.
