From pretty stream to over there stream… without getting your feet wet… in some places there is even a ford

Beautiful views of the bridges from the side... here you can see how much it sags

This is one of the more than 100 existing "Saar-Hunsrück dream loops" that make the large area south of the Moselle very attractive as a hiking destination. In the brochure it is described with the words "With magnificent views, the hiking trail leads from the Hunsrück plateau ... into the deep Ehrbach valley. In complete isolation, the path runs along a narrow path along the stream. There are steep ascents and descents with ... surprising views." The dream loop is 8.5 kilometers long, 390 meters in altitude and is described as taking 3 to 4 hours to walk.

If you want to avoid the many visitors who cross the bridge in procession, especially when the weather is nice, you should be at the bridge by 10:00 a.m. at the latest. The bridge can be accessed from both directions and there are several wooden benches and wooden loungers at the entrance points so you can enjoy this impressive masterpiece of engineering.

🏰Eltz Castle is a hilltop castle from the 12th century. It is located at 129 m above sea level in the Elz valley🌊. With its eight residential towers up to 35 meters high, its bay windows, roofs, half-timbering and spires, it is the epitome of a knight's castle for the spontaneous observer.⚔️ It sits majestically in a side valley of the Moselle near Mayen. This imposing sight even adorned the 500 DM note for several decades.

That's pretty high if you look from the bottom up. :-)

Good view of the suspension bridge.

Great view of the Geierley.
