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.

The egg-shaped ejected particles are 6 cm or larger and deform the layers of earth when impacted. They are clearly visible here on the rock walls.

Here the Endertbach falls 7 meters to the valley. The waterfall, the so-called "Rausch", is next to the old mills the most beautiful highlight of our hike through the Enderttal. Really worth seeing.

Beautiful waterfall in the valley. Nice place to take a break.

Very, very nice section, but better not to drive in rainy weather. Not only our bikes, but we ourselves were covered in mud afterwards.

The first volcanoes were active in Boos around 40 million years ago. The last volcanic activity was only about 8,000-10,000 years ago. Countless tracks and the two maars can be found in the area of the Booser Doppelmaartour. The lava bomb shows in an impressive way what happened to the rock layers when a lava bomb was hit.

You have to go up here! There is a completely different perspective on the Reichsburg. Beautiful! And good for your stamina when you climb up here on foot!
