This is one of the more than 100 existing "Saar-Hunsrück dream loops" that make the large area south of the Moselle very attractive as a hiking destination. In the brochure it is described with the words "With magnificent views, the hiking trail leads from the Hunsrück plateau ... into the deep Ehrbach valley. In complete isolation, the path runs along a narrow path along the stream. There are steep ascents and descents with ... surprising views." The dream loop is 8.5 kilometers long, 390 meters in altitude and is described as taking 3 to 4 hours to walk.

I do not know to what extent the old traditions that there was a cult site from Germanic times at this point in the stream valley can be proven archaeologically. It is probably no coincidence that the sign on the hiking trail speaks of this possibility in the subjunctive.

The path leads through two consecutive rock breakthroughs. But be careful, the headroom is very limited.

The so-called "Donnerloch" is the narrowest part of the Brodenbach valley. Here you will find a nice resting place between water and rocks that invites us to take a longer break. A real highlight of today's tour.

Pretty waterfall that is fed by one of the Ehrbach tributaries. In the immediate vicinity is a bank that invites you to linger. One of the highlights in the gorge and a great place for a break.

Great for taking water photos. Dippers are sometimes spotted.

On hot days, the gorge is a wonderful cool spot with nice resting places.

The term via ferrata is heavily exaggerated. There are well-developed climbing aids in rocky terrain that offer safety on damp ground.
