モーゼル渓谷の天然記念物・トップ20

🥾🥾⛰️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🥾🥾🎒.

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

The Calmont via ferrata is more of a mountain trail than a via ferrata. Passages of the "via ferrata" are made safer with handrails, ladders, step bars and stepping pins. However, hikers who are not sure-footed also have the option of bypassing the short section of the "via ferrata".

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. 😍

You can also enjoy the view without hiking up. Drive up with the car. Drive quite far, then comes a gravel road, this approx. 2km comes a parking lot for hikers. From there it is not far to the summit cross and Vierseenblick. Together about 2km. Above are great wide hiking trails. Well suited for beginners. Then down to Bremm where the second vantage point is easily accessible on foot. So everyone has something.

Shortly after the death of Kaiser Wilhelm I, the idea arose to erect a memorial to the Kaiser, who had brought about the complete unification of Germany after three wars. Three years later, in 1891, Kaiser Wilhelm II, the grandson of the deceased, chose the Deutsches Eck in Koblenz as a suitable location. In order to create space for the memorial, a port of refuge was filled in, which at that time was located at the mouth of the Moselle. The Deutsches Eck in its present form was created. On August 31, 1897, the copper-engraved monument to Kaiser Wilhelm I was inaugurated in the presence of Kaiser Wilhelm II.

The Deutsches Eck is the landmark of the city of Koblenz and a major attraction for tourists.
