Vintage Hochwaldbahn locomotive in Reinsfeld

Highlight (Segment) • Monument

This is where this old Hochwaldbahn locomotive has found its resting place. As is so often the case, the old train station is a residential building.

The well-developed cycle path in the direction of Hermeskeil leaves nothing to be desired. Here you can really enjoy nature.

The Ruwer-Hochwald cycle path is another highlight of the railway cycle paths in the Hunsrück. The 48 kilometer long route from Trier-Ruwer to Hermeskeil is one of the most beautiful cycle paths on railway lines in Germany.

I've been here for the marathon. The national park is a really nice area. Highly recommended, I think the bike park is also worth a visit.

Windklang Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

This barrier-free viewing platform is a highlight at the highest point and mountain in Rhineland-Palatinate. A viewing platform and art sculpture in one, this sound harp is an experience.
