Entrance to the beautiful trail

Beautiful, narrow path through the tunnel along the stream... exciting part

Zell Castle was built between 1535 and 1543 as a secondary residence for the Electors of Trier. The impressive baroque building with its round towers and beautiful exterior facade is located on the Schloßstraße in Zell, which is named after it. The building consists of three different wings, which together form an L-shaped floor plan. Today, Zell Castle is home to a hotel and restaurants. The "Schloßkeller" regularly hosts a variety of events. Directly next to the castle is the former synagogue of the city of Zell, which was used until the November pogrom of 1938.

Great trail, really fun

The intermediate mountain bike trail represents a perfect balance between challenge and fun. Suitable for advanced beginners and experienced bikers alike

Nice castle ruins, there is not much left, but still worth a detour

Dill Castle is a ruin. The Spornburg sits on a mountain spur above the Dillerbach, in the middle of the 200 soul town of Dill in the Hunsrück. It was probably built in the 11th century, and Adalbert von Dill Graf von Mörsberg (County of Sponheim) is said to be the founder. During the War of the Palatinate Succession in 1697, the castle was destroyed by a French army. The town of Dill was spared.

The town, which has a population of 200, is the start and finish of the Diller Castle Trail dream loop. The town itself has beautiful half-timbered houses. The church is also worth seeing, as are the castle ruins. Nobody needs to go thirsty here, because there is a rest area in front of the castle entrance and you can get self-service drinks at fair prices in the old weighing house. And if you've had too much to drink, you can relieve yourself in the well-maintained toilet facilities about 100 meters away.
