Nahe Spring Trail (Western Loop)

Highlight • Trail

beautifully designed family hiking trail with lots of rest and play options on the way. It leads through the middle of the forest on narrow paths that are sometimes a bit steeper and have roots. Therefore, sometimes for hotter days, since most of it is in the shade.
Not suitable for prams because of the paths.
At the beginning of the path or opposite the parking lots there is a wildlife enclosure with goats, donkeys and deer as well as a playground with climbing opportunities.

Source of the Nahe

Highlight • Natural Monument

This is where the 125 kilometer Nahe begins its journey to the Rhine. Up to the mouth in Bingen, it leaves 380 meters of altitude behind. The source is a nice place for a break. There is a playground in the immediate vicinity.
