Steinbergs Bridge Dernau

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful, old stone bridge over the Ahr.
Update Oct. 21: One of the few bridges that survived the flood in July 2021 - there is some damage, but the bridge is passable...
Update July 23: The bridge is easy to reach again, as the temporary garbage dump near Dernau has now been closed. It is also easily passable.
There are now also numerous temporary bridges - mostly near destroyed bridges...

Saffenburg Tunnel

Highlight • Cycleway

Another tunnel of the Ahr cycle path. He is lighted and easy to drive. Here, too, a railway tunnel runs parallel through which the Ahr Valley Railway travels.

The Ahr Valley Cycle Path now runs through a railway tunnel of the former Ahr Valley Railway, which is now located between Insul and Schuld.

Insul Tunnel on the Ahr Cycle Path

Highlight • Structure

the Prümer Tor is unfortunately a little inconspicuous directly on the main road between Schuld and Insul. You have to watch out for the benches on the main street. It goes down a few steps. So keep your eyes peeled when searching

But now the clouds are coming 🌧️

Partly via the old railway line along the Ahr, this part of the valley and especially Schuld suffered the full brunt of the floods in June 2021, many houses, bridges and roads were washed away and 184 people drowned. There is reconstruction everywhere, but that will take years. You still see the misery along the way. Several sections of road …

A beautiful tour – partly still on a replacement route – but construction work is still underway. The route often runs along the Ahr River in a very idyllic setting. Benches are frequently found along the trail.

It's possible to take a tour by bus and have your bikes transported on the trailer.

Drive to the Ahr Valley.... it's beautiful there despite everything, you can still do a lot... and the people there are happy to have guests!

Very nice new path: part restored after the flood 2 years ago. Very scenic
