Slightly hidden under the rocks

Natural monument No. 113 of the Birkenfeld district According to tradition, the juniper heath covered more than 60,000 square meters at the beginning of the 20th century. However, the residents reduced it to 1/6 of its area by the mid-1930s. Due to the lack of doormats available at the time, the juniper was used as a doormat. This “request” of the population was then put to an end in 1939. In the Trier government's official gazette dated July 1, 1939, the remaining area was placed under the protection of the Reich Nature Conservation Act. The area has been grazed by sheep since the mid-1990s. With the help of the then upper state maintenance authority of the Koblenz district government (the costs were borne by the district government), gorse and hawthorn were removed from the entire area and the existing dilapidated fence was replaced with a new one.

Natural monument No. 111 of the Birkenfeld district The Krummenau Imperial Oak is certainly one of the most impressive trees in the entire Hunsrück. At the beginning of the 90s the oak was subjected to “tree surgical renovation”. Rotten branches were removed and deep cracks, some of which were caused by lightning strikes, were sealed with a special compound. Today it can be seen that this measure has brought only moderate success. At that time (1990) the tree was estimated to be around 370 years old. This means that the oak is likely to “crack” today at the 400 year mark. The trunk circumference is now approx. 6.43 meters (measured 1 meter above ground level on September 18, 2011 on the occasion of this year's fruit wine hike). The height is estimated to be 25 meters.

A beautiful rest area. The return journey along the Song Trail begins here. The helicopter landing pad is just a few steps further towards Starkenburg.

Rest area above Enkirch, located directly on the Moselsteig Trail. A seating area invites you to linger, during the little break you have a very good view of the Moselle.
