Bridge Over the Lontzenerbach

Highlight • Bridge

A good or perhaps the only opportunity to cross the Lontzener Bach with dry feet on the way to or from the daffodils in the valley.

The Oskar Gallery is part of the region's historic mining operation. It is 500 meters long. The ore mined in the “Schmalgraf” mine was transported through this tunnel to the processing plant.

The Hohnbachtal was the most beautiful section of today's hike. It was a little surprising for us that there are even footbridges over a long distance. A very nice experience.

Today we took a walk through the Hohnbach Valley and the Tal der Blumen. At this time (early April) nothing is in bloom. This area is known for its beautiful wild Daffodils.

We started from the parking lot in Lontzen. The route runs over meadows, through forests and farm roads. We also pass the Climbing Wall of the German Alpine …

Spring is finally here 😍It's so beautiful to see in the Hohnbach Valley at the moment, on the long version of the daffodil hike.

Have a lovely Sunday evening, everyone 🥾🙋‍♀️

Start and finish at 41, rue Alternberg, across the grassy path.
Apart from a few short sections, I discovered a completely new route today.
There's just a short, difficult descent after about 1.5 km. Otherwise, there's no major difficulty.
At the 10th km, you have about 1.5 km of road, 1 km with a soft shoulder suitable for vehicles.
It's …

At times it was more like ice skating than hiking boots, on the slippery and mud-heavy paths. Nevertheless, a beautiful nature reserve, the Hohnbachtal. And there were also daffodil fields to see, the view of them inspired me to hike on this tour.
Have a nice evening everyone 🥾🙋‍♀️

In the best hiking weather, head to the Hohnbachtal. Even the daffodil blossom has started. A little early, but worth seeing. We then went back towards the start via Lontzen. Great landscape and impressive houses could be seen

Sandwiched between beautiful sunny spring days, this day …
