Löwenburg Orchard Meadow

Highlight • Natural

Especially nice when the sheep are grazing in the meadow, the satisfied bleating of the wooly lawnmower fits wonderfully into this environment. Then (even better: always) keep dogs on a …

There are two ways to get to the castle. There is a signpost just before the castle
- 700 meters, a very steep and strenuous path
-1700 meters, much longer but much easier than the 700 meter long route

January 1, 2025,Siebengebirge - Bad Honnef - Auf den Spuren des Rhein-Steigs im Tretschbachtal

Hello everyone! From Bad Honnef, the route leads through the Tretschbach Valley, also part of the Rhein-Steig (Rhine and Crags Trail), up to Löwenburg Castle. The path through the valley is mostly a path; up around the castle, it continues on forest roads, then descends again on the Rhein-Steig (Rhine and Crags Trail). We didn't visit the castle itself, but …

March 25, 2022,Tour 24 - Von Rhöndorf auf die Ruine Löwenburg und durchs Tretschbachtal

Nice tour with a relatively demanding ascent to the Löwenburg ruins. It was fun thanks to the nice weather and the chirping of birds. The descent through the beautiful Tretschbachtal compensated for previous efforts.

This hike begins in the Rommersdorf district of Bad Honnef with a search for a parking space, as there are narrow streets here. The path leads through Schaaffhausenstraße
in the Möschbachtal, via a forest path to a refuge. At the hut, turn right into the Tretschbachtal. Along the stream you will find a narrow path, many wooden footbridges and small …

February 5, 2023,Bhf Rhöndorf - Löwenburg und zurück

True to the motto: The art of life is to learn to dance in the rain instead of waiting for the sun, today I trudged up the muddy paths to the Löwenburg in the most beautiful drizzle weather and slid back through the muddy Tretschbach and Anna valleys.

Yes, we were actually supposed to see the full moon (pink moon) with the nice little group. We weren't disappointed that it didn't show up. Just walking for 2 hours through this wonderful Tretschbach valley to Löwenburg was an experience for the senses. Letting your gaze wander over the Siebengebirge and down to the Rhine. Unforgettable. Thanks to everyone who …

July 3, 2022,2022-07-03 Rundtour ab Bad Honnef-Rommersdorf durch das Tretschbachtal zum Löwenburger Hof, zurück über den Großen Breiberg

A great hike on permitted paths from Bad Honnef-Rommersdorf through the Anna and Tretschbach valleys up towards Löwenburg and around them with a stop at the Löwenburger Hof. If you want, you can still climb the short distance to the worthwhile Löwenburg.
The way back is past the Kleiner and Grosser Breiberg. The detour to the Großer Breiberg made here …

January 21, 2023,Bahnhof Rhöndorf - Löwenburg und zurück

The path from Rhöndorf station through the Annabachtal and the Tretschbachtal goes steadily uphill. The two deeply cut brook valleys are nice to walk on and a wonderful all-round view beckons from the Löwenburg. The path leads back to Rhöndorf via the Breiberge.
