Nice climb to Hammelsberg. A bit demanding, but easy to do. Would still recommend hiking shoes.

Beautiful tour with beautiful views of Luxembourg and France. Many rough meadows with different orchids.

My 2nd planned tour today fell through after 7 km, the sky smashed everything down 🌨️🌨️ and I was wet to the core, so it was shortened and now on 🚌 it stopped. The panorama tour itself is beautiful, with many views and explanations 👍👍.
But this is enough for me for today....✅😄🙋

I hiked the Dream Loop for the third time today. And again, I didn't manage to walk past my car at the parking lot and complete the last 3 km toward Sehndorf. So, I only managed the 8 km. Delicious strawberry cake was calling for me at home 😃

A very beautiful panoramic trail! And in wonderful hiking weather 😎

Unfortunately I lost sight of the route somewhere, but no problem, there are enough other hiking trails and in the end I saved myself a good 2km 🤷

I was really impressed.

Beautiful dream loop, actually 12km long...we skipped the last 3 in favor of a visit to the Carlsfelsen winery and took a shortcut. The orchid meadows and the climb to Hammelsberg are always a highlight of this tour and the views that you can enjoy from numerous benches make this dream loop special...not to forget the wine cabinet relatively near …

Mostly narrow paths, through the forest, on the edge of the forest, meadows.
Again and again distant views of the Moselle valley.
Several rest areas and benches.
Butterflies.
Mantis.
Nature reserve.
Excellent signposted.

The Panoramaweg Perl has a new route. The hiking trail is now 12 km long.
Due to lack of time, we walked the usual hiking trail again and will soon take a closer look at the new route.
The "old" route is very varied …
