June 19, 2025,Kasbachtal Bahn – Brauhaus Aussicht Runde von Linz (Rhein)

First day in Linz am Rhein. A beautiful walk through the forest in 30-degree heat. It was pleasant. The brewery in the middle is a great place to stop for a bite to eat. Highly recommended 🤠👍. Then back to town and now to relax 🍺🤠.

May 21, 2022,Linz am Rhein - Burg Ockenfels - Kasbachtal - Erpeler Ley

In the middle of May on the Rheinsteiges and already a touch of Westerwald. From Linz am Rhein steadily up to Ockenfels Castle. Very varied through meadows and narrow paths, also through Ockenfels Ort and on to Kasbachtal. Idyllic and well-known ... thanks to the nostalgic railbus and the old brewery. Then I spontaneously decided to climb a few more …

January 29, 2023,Linz (Rhein) durchs Kasbachtal

A great hike with many highlights. I would rate it a notch higher than moderate

I started at the top from the hiking car park at the Erl chapel. There you can enjoy great views over the Rhine Valley into the Eifel.
The hike leads into the Kasbachtal, where we follow the stream and the railway line of the still active railway steadily downwards. The route, which runs predominantly through the forest, has impressive rock …

September 12, 2021,Erpeler Ley – Aussicht über das Rheintal und Remagen (Rheinsteig)

Today we hike on this beautiful circular hiking trail to the Erpeler Ley and enjoy the view of the Rhine Valley near Remagen. In particular, we see the remains of the former Ludendorff Bridge. On the way we have a lot of variety between fields and forests on this circular hiking trail.
