ガウアルゲスハイムの峡谷・トップ8

The Hangflächen nature reserve features impressive hollow ways that have been carved deep into the soft soil over many years by rain and cart traffic. Today, these shady paths, some several meters deep, lead through a diverse landscape of dry grasslands, sandy soils, and orchards amidst the hilly landscape of Rhenish Hesse.

This really beautiful section between the König winery and the Höllenbergstrasse car park is now part of the relatively new Riesling loop “Himmel und Höllenberg”, as already mentioned by Veronika in 2020. And therefore the section is freely accessible throughout. However, you should perhaps also be a little sure-footed, because next to/above the stream the path is very narrow for a short time and may also be a bit "inclined". Between the König winery and the stream you walk on a path with a lot of loose rock (currently hidden under a lot of leaves). We can only recommend this section.

These ravines have a loess soil, up to 15 meters of sand has been deposited here.

A ravine is a path that has cut up to 10 meters deep into the surrounding terrain through centuries of use by carts and cattle as well as rainwater runoff. Wikipedia

A normal experienced hiker has no problems here.

I got through today without any problems in dry weather.
