シュミットの絶景の山頂・トップ9

High atop Pinnerberg Mountain stands the Pinner Cross, a vantage point offering a magnificent view of the Moselle Valley. Its name comes from a shepherd who, while saving one of his lost animals from a fall, lost his life in the process. The cross was erected in his memory. The view of the town of Cochem with its Reichsburg Castle and the entire Moselle loop is impressive.

The cross is approximately 18 meters high and consists of a cross spire, a shaft, and a base. High up on the Pinnerberg, which is easily accessible by the Cochem chairlift, stands the Pinner Cross, a vantage point with a magnificent view of the Moselle Valley. The name goes back to a shepherd who tried to save one of his lost animals from falling and lost his life in the process. The cross was erected in his memory.

From this vantage point you have one of the best valley views of the Moselle loop.

The Calmont is a prominent peak on the Moselle. The highest elevation is 380 meters high. Interestingly, the Calmont summit cross is not at the highest point, but below it. This may be because the Calmont is a ridge above the Moselle. The location of the summit cross offers a prominent view of the Moselle - better than from the highest point. Therefore, the summit cross makes much more sense at this point. Source: https://www.calmont-klettersteig-moselschleife.de/calmont/

A covered, clean rest area with a great view again.

After a steep ascent you will be rewarded with a very beautiful view.

It is particularly beautiful in October when the leaves change color. Shortly after 10 a.m. we walked from Eidiger-Eller, first over the Todesangst and the Höhenweg, so we were above the Moselle loop at the right time. There is a rest area with a bench, from where we could watch how the fog revealed the colorful landscape.

Beautiful hiking tour with a view of the Moselle loop. 😍
