The path follows a narrow path along the gorge. At difficult sections, there are ropes for support.

The start of the hiking trail is easy to find. The signage is very good.

The Hölzbach Gorge is the absolute highlight and namesake of the Hunolsteiner Gorge Tour, a premium circular hiking trail with exceptional diversity in the Hunsrück region. This impressive section encompasses approximately 800 meters of untouched nature and lies in the final third of the hike, just before the Hölzbach flows into the Dhron River. Hikers plunge into a deeply cut, gorge-like ravine, crossing which is a wildly romantic experience: the gurgling and bubbling water of the stream creates a cool, almost magical soundscape. The stream winds its way between slate cliffs and large boulders, forming rapids and small waterfalls, and creating a humid habitat for ferns and mosses. The narrow path through the gorge requires surefootedness and sturdy footwear. Ropes are provided in some challenging sections to assist in safely mastering the ascent. The passage through the Hölzbach Gorge is the most intense and wildest part of the tour and leaves all visitors with a lasting impression of the primal power of the Hunsrück nature.

Beautiful rock formations. Good for photos or to linger.

This tour starts at the Hunolsteiner Hof farm café, where it's worth stopping for a bite to eat at the end of the tour. In good weather, you can also sit outside. At the beginning of the tour, as is usual with the Saar-Hunsrück Dream Loops, is the entrance gate. A few minutes after starting at the "Hunolsteiner Hof" farm café, the largely destroyed castle of the former governors of Hunolstein is the first highlight of the hike. After walking a short distance through the town of Hunolstein, the trail descends into the Dhron Valley. The absolute highlight of the Dream Loop is the 800-meter-long, narrow path through the Hölzbach Gorge. The babbling stream flowing down the valley creates a dreamy audible backdrop. The relatively new "Häja Wiesn Schänke" refreshment station offers both alcoholic (proof of age required) and non-alcoholic drinks and snacks. Payment is based on trust, e.g., a credit card. Payment can be made in cash or via PayPal. Benches invite you to linger. The trail has been rated 82 points by the German Hiking Institute.

Unfortunately, the bench was already full on our walk through the Hölzbach Gorge. This is a great place for a rest!

Ample parking is available. After the tour, you can stop off at the country café, which offers plenty of seating inside and outside.

Nice rest area right next to the gorge with a table.
