Swing with panoramic view of Hunsrück

Highlight • Viewpoint

The way there is difficult. On our lap, first a steep ascent, then paths, partly graveled. From Heimweiler, too, the section just before the swing is extended and partly graveled. The view and the swing are great.

Füllmannsmühle and Horbachsmühle on the Großbach

Highlight • Structure

On this section you pass the Füllmansmühle, which is idyllically located on the Großbach. There is no restaurant or accommodation here, it is completely private. But nice to look at.

March 13, 2022,Heimweiler Runde - 13.03.2022

This hike has inspired us for the second time. In the best hiking weather, we and friends set out on the varied trail from the community center in Heimweiler. The big swing, the Süssbach spring and the boar trail are highlights of this tour. Supplemented by the podcasts, which report on events from the past and are sometimes spoken in …

April 22, 2023,VITALTour Mit Krebs un Karer unerwäschs

Today we hiked the last and probably the newest VitalTOUR for us with friends.
Start was in Heimweiler at the village community center.
Then up the slope and on beautiful paths into the Süssbachklamm and to the Süssbach source, where we treated ourselves to a small sparkling wine from the wine fridge there.
After the Süssbachtal we see the lower …

September 28, 2025,🌾 Mit Krebs un Karer unerwäschs – Mühlen, Hecken & Hangblicke

A varied route with quiet field and forest passages, beautiful hillside views, and short cultural stops. I particularly enjoyed the Füllmannsmühle (local direct sales – check opening hours), the Horbachsmühle with its history trail, and the information panels on the cultural landscape trail. The terrain is partly rooty and grassy – slippery after rain. Please keep dogs on a leash …

July 22, 2023,VT - Mit Krebs un Karer unerwächs

In the Hunsrück, near Kirn, lies the village of Heimweiler. This is where I was drawn to today for a Vital Tour. The route with the sonorous name is very varied, offers one or the other steep incline and is also well signposted. Only at the Süssbachquelle did I lose sight of the original path for a few hundred meters. …

April 27, 2025,Vitaltour Mit Krebs un Karer unerwäschs

Today I headed back toward the Nahe, where there are still a few vitality tours that are missing a catch. The vitality tour "Mit Krebs un Karer unerwäschs" (With Cancer and Caries Unwashed) isn't exactly one of the shorter tours at 13km, but it's still easy to do thanks to the well-chosen route. The signage is excellent, and there are …

April 22, 2023,Vitaltour "Mit Krebs un Karer unerwäschs" - ab Heimweiler

I thought 2 weeks ago that I had done the last vitality tour. But since the beginning of April there has been the 13.5 km long vitality tour "Underwash with cancer and Karer", which starts in Heimsweiler. Of course it had to be done. We started in Heimsweiler at the village community center and then found out right away that …
