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.

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

A great and impressive backdrop, as the two waterfalls rush under the bridge, with the mill and the castle in the background.

🥾🥾⛰️The Calmont is a steep vineyard with a 65 degree incline↗️ & a height of 378 meters↕️. The Calmont via ferrata🥾🥾🪜 leads through the vineyard, impassable rocky sections are overcome with climbing aids. The hike on the Calmont high trail with the Calmont summit cross and “Vierseenblick” offers fantastic views🎨🖌. Difficult passages are equipped with rock steps, rope safety devices, steel ladders, iron brackets and footholds. 🧭The Calmont region is located on the Terraced Moselle, just under 20 kilometers from Cochem. Thanks to the German Alpine Association and many volunteers from the surrounding communities of Bremm, Ediger-Eller and Neef. Because they all made sure that the mountain was accessible in the first place🥾🥾🎒.

The route is great, a clear recommendation if you think you can do it.

The Moselle loop near Bremm is the most famous of the many river bends of the Moselle. The Stuben monastery ruins and the Petersberg in the background complete the picture. You can look directly at it from the Calmont summit - and also a little below, i.e. from the via ferrata.

The Calmont is an almost 400 meter high steep vineyard with a 65 degree slope. The Calmont via ferrata leads up and down through the vineyard over narrow, partly rooty and numerous rocky passages. Difficult passages are equipped with rock steps, rope safety devices, 6 steel ladders, 22 iron brackets and 16 stepping pins.
