Dhron Stream and Waterfalls

Highlight (Segment) • Waterfall

Here the Dhron bubbles over numerous quartzite rocks or curves around them.
The stones are sometimes very slippery, because they are mossy or simply ground smooth during the Ice Age. …

At the foot of a spectacular boulder, a picnic bench and a rest bench offer a break with a view of a loop of the Dhron that winds through several quartzite rocks.

Schafpuhl Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Dhron is crossed at the Schafpuhlbrücke. In the old days the stream was dammed here to clean the sheep's fur before the shear, hence the name Schafpuhlbrücke.

Hunolsteiner Hof Farm Café

Highlight • Cafe

Hearty home cooking from the Hunsrück and a good cake menu attract some cyclists from the Hunsrück cycle path to the farm café – and rightly so!

This tour starts at the Hunolsteiner Hof farm café, where it's worth stopping for a bite to eat at the end of the tour. In good weather, you can also sit outside.

The Hunoldsbacher Klamtour dream loop was largely impressive. I found the route to be varied. Narrow paths alternated with not-too-boring forest paths. Wildly rushing streams accompanied our path and there were also plenty of rocks to marvel at.

Today we went on an Easter tour to Hunolstein with @Manggongjai.

First to the rocky castle ruins high above the Dhron, then down to it, where it flows rushing and gurgling through the wacken rolling down the slopes.

Then an adventurous climb up through the Hölzbachklamm gorge, then across wide meadows to the Schafpuhl bridge and back up to the …

Surprisingly, we planned this loop at the weekend, and we were completely thrilled by the first 6 kilometers anti-clockwise. You have to overcome around 11 kilometers and almost 300 meters of elevation on this challenging tour and you can stop off at the Hunolsteiner Hof farm café at the end. Of course we did!

Today it was again a tour to my liking. Beautiful 😍
Endless views as if we were walking in the sky. Castle ruins, meadow paths, root paths and always the gurgling, rushing water by our side 🚶🚶‍♀️🐕.
A small cooling gorge with sweet waterfalls, cute. 😂
Rest and resting places along the entire path and again and again open space. …

Nice quiet round on a sunny day. You need sturdy shoes for the gorge. At the farmer's cafe there was a lot going on again.

Today I walked the dream loop with the very best @Michael in the often pouring rain. Armed with ponchos, we looked at the castle ruins. Down through the forest with a view of the Walholz church and past the Kopus rock. Short rest by the stream. Then came the most beautiful part through the gorge. The rain meant there was …

Hello everyone, our dream loop today is up for election as hiking trail for 2025, so expectations were pretty high. It was okay at first but there was no reason to celebrate. It's mostly wide forest paths and very few short paths with a maximum length of 100 to 200 meters in between. Then the only nice thing about this …
