Stolzenfels Castle is a beautiful castle complex that can be seen from afar thanks to its strikingly light-colored walls. If you would like to visit the castle yourself, you can find information on opening times and admission prices here: tor-zum-welterbe.de/de/schloss-stolzenfels.

King's Chair of Rhens

Highlight • Monument

Even if the King's Chair is not in its original location, it still provides an entertaining introduction to the German coronation system from the Middle Ages to modern times. You also get a fantastic view of the Rhine Valley. It can be reached via the Rhine Castle Trail from Koblenz to Rhens or the Wolfsdelle Dream Trail. In both cases you have to leave the hiking trail for a short time.

View of the Feindliche Brüder Castles and Bad Salzig

Highlight • Viewpoint

The "Enemy Brothers" is a German legend about the neighboring castles Sterrenberg and Liebenstein, which you see from here on the other side of the valley. The story about the two brothers Heinrich and Konrad is said to have been first told in 1587. Both fell in love with the beautiful Hildegard. That this does not end with a happy ending, is somehow foreseeable ... If you want to read more: The legend is the subject of the poem "Two brothers" by Heinrich Heine in the book of songs.

View of the Rhine Valley and the Praying Nun statue (Ziehlay)

From the ledge "praying nun" you have a fantastic view of the Rhine Valley. At the large wooden sculpture in the form of a praying nun, you realize that you are right. Find out more about the history of this place on a billboard.

Kalkofen Viewpoint with Resting Bench

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here lime was already burned in the 17th century, which was used as a binder for mortar. As a basic material, the calcareous clay was used, which was abundant in the southern part of the "Tempusbachtales". The loam deposits on the terraces of the Rhine Valley originated during the Ice Age. During this time, the Rhine hardly led water and the permafrost pulverized the calcareous gravel.

Ascent to the Europakuppel and view over the Upper Middle Rhine Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

Not to be underestimated ascent over quarry stone steps, rock ridges and stony serpentines. In the middle, a bench on a rocky spur offers an unobstructed view of the Middle Rhine Valley. At the very top, where the path plunges back into the forest, you will be greeted by a bench and can take a breather. Sturdy shoes required!
