Here the pig was slaughtered...

Very beautiful section through the Southern Eifel Nature Park.

According to local legend, the Ascension Day procession originated as a thanksgiving procession during the plague. However, according to the parish chronicle, the origins of the current form of the procession date back to the 18th century, when Mettendorf still belonged to Prüm Abbey. Until 1757, the citizens made an annual pilgrimage to Prüm. This was followed by the French Revolution, during which no procession took place. The custom was reintroduced around 1850. Today, the pilgrimage on this day leads to the field shrine "Maasch Kapellchen."

Today I chose the bridge.

At the "Roter Puhl" the Enz has cut into the slope covered with beech trees at a considerable height. Here the rock of the middle Bunter sandstone from the Triassic period stands in bright orange-red colors. These deposits in river and delta areas are around 220 million years old.

If you keep your eyes open, you will see extensively used meadows with lots of flowers.

At the "Roter Puhl" the Enz has cut the beech slope at a stately height. Here, in bright orange-red colors, the middle red sandstone rock of the Triassic geologic age can be seen. These deposits in river and delta areas are about 220 million years old. The oblique stratification of the sandstone visible in the bedrock in alternating layers with horizontal strata and gravel bands testifies to the different flow conditions of the primordial waters. The arch's shape is the result of thousands of years of exposure to water from the meandering Enz River. The surface of the rock face is still subject to constant weathering, in places the rock is slightly more porous. An interesting insight into the floor structure can be obtained in the upper part. The overlying Earths here only reach a thickness of less than a meter. Natural crevices provide nesting and breeding grounds for the kingfisher, which is native to the area.

Luckily here again a separate bike path along the Enz.
