The path is very narrow. If you are afraid of heights, you should choose a different tour.

Two very nice trails, respect to the builders. As some have already described here, the difficulty is S2 with an S3 key point. You reach this at the end of the right descent if you turn left again towards the bomb craters. Unfortunately, the trail is no longer accessible down to the parking lot in Walporzheim because the flood in the Ahr Valley (07-2021) washed everything away. Another result of the flood is the fact that the two descents "Katzley left & right" have been officially closed (from approx. 07-2023). This means that it is currently no longer possible to connect one of the two old hiking trails to the built trail as a finale. :( Volker's comment here in the comments that the descent is S4-5 is of course nonsense. A full suspension bike is also not necessary, although it is helpful. In my opinion, the trail is not suitable for MTB beginners. You should have solid bike control before you try it for the first time, and ideally you should also have had a year or two of downhill-oriented mountain biking.

Difficult to drive. It becomes very slippery, especially when wet, because of the roots.

Tricky walking trail, not for the faint hearted

After completion of the Altenahr bypass in 1998, the drive through the Ahr Valley was to be placed under God's protection. For this purpose, the statue "Merciful Jesus" was set up in the "Sattelfeld" corridor above the practice tunnel. The idea for this came from Maternus Gasper. The district administration and the road construction authority in Cochem supported the initiative.

The statue is made of red sandstone and is pretty to look at. There is also a stone tablet next to it.
