Pünderich Hang Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

On the cycle route along the Moselle, you cycle past this impressive structure: the Pünderich slope viaduct. It is the longest of its kind in Germany and has a total of 92 arches that are ten meters high. The viaduct was built in the 19th century. Due to the earlier military use of the railway line, it is also called the "cannon railway".

History (for those who are interested :-)

Franconian grave finds show Beilstein's settlement around 800 AD. The place had been a feudal possession of the Lords of Braunshorn since 1268. Under Johann von Braunshorn (1299–1346), Beilstein received city privileges from King Henry VII in 1309 and was fortified. A Jewish community has been documented since 1309, and its Jewish cemetery above the castle still exists today. The former parish church was founded in 1310. After the von Braunshorn family died out, the fief passed to the von Winneburg family in 1360. After Kurtrier took possession of Beilstein in 1488, the Imperial Counts of Metternich enfeoffed the rule of Winneburg and Beilstein in 1652. In 1689, Metternich Castle (“The Proud Walls”) was destroyed by French troops. A Carmelite monastery was founded in 1636 (abolished in 1803), and the foundation stone of the Carmelite monastery church was laid in 1691, which was completed in 1783. The townscape was created in the 17th and 18th centuries and has largely been preserved to this day. The rule of the Imperial Counts of Metternich ended in 1794 with the occupation by French revolutionary troops. From 1798 to 1814 the place belonged to the canton of Zell in the Rhine-Moselle department and was the main town of a Mairie. In 1815 the place was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia at the Congress of Vienna and belonged to the Senheim mayor's office in the Zell district. It has been part of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate since 1946.

View of the Neef Lock

Highlight • Monument

On the other side of the river (left bank of the Moselle) there is a path that leads directly to the lock chamber. From here you can watch the lock process from the entrance to the exit.

The Marienburg is located on the last foothills of Zell (Moselle), more precisely at a narrowing of the almost 14 kilometer long Moselle loop of the Zeller Hamm. The former Augustinian convent was dissolved in 1515 and converted into a fortification.

The Moselle Cycle Path is really recommended!
It is varied and worth seeing in all routes: vineyards, cute wine villages, the boat trip on the Moselle and the magical nature of autumn!
Plus the many walnut trees that cast a spell over you!
Beautiful landscape

Unfortunately, komoot threw a wrench in my plans this morning. 🙅 My GPS crashed twice, so I had to restart my phone. The tour is actually almost exactly 100 km. I added another one at the end to make sure the campsite was around 90 km long. 😄

I've never ridden this route on the Moselle before. It's between the two campsites Ellenz-Poltersdorf and Pünderich, both of which we visited. The cycle path on the left bank of the river is perfectly maintained. From Cochem towards Briedel, it's a 2 km bike path right next to the road, but it's okay. The return journey from Kloster Stuben was …

Today there were some very nice sections, sometimes off the busy roads. And magnificent views of steep and even steeper vineyards!

7th stage to Cochem.
Today we were a little faster. A thunderstorm front was chasing us. Luckily we reached a bridge before the big storm, under which we were protected. We took a break for about an hour and then the sun came out again and we were able to continue our journey in very nice weather. Behind Zell, work …

That was an amazingly beautiful day. 90% of the bike path was great, we cycled through many beautiful small towns and the landscape on the Moselle is just beautiful, so it can go on
