Rupperts Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The path leads at the most beautiful point through the stream bed, sometimes with wire ropes to hold on to. A bit challenging, but really worth it! Can also be done with dogs.

May 5, 2023,Ruppertsklamm Runde von Lahnstein auf der Höhe

Since I haven't visited this gorge yet, it was my turn today.
I had parked in Oberlahnstein and it went quickly down and over the railway track and then over a small bridge to the other side of the Lahn. Up to the B 260, after crossing it continue to the entrance to the gorge.
Unfortunately, the narrow path to …

A beautiful gorge hike that was really fun!
The ascent 🧗 was varied – at times we went directly through the stream, over rocks, with ropes to hold on to, and across wooden walkways and bridges. Once at the top, we took a break at the shelter before continuing on and crossing the Uhulay 🦉.
The descent was also exciting, …

I couldn't leave it 🤭. On the way home I still took the Ruppertsklamm near Lahnstein near Koblenz with me 🤩. And hopefully the pictures show how much it was worth it. The gorge is about 1.5 kilometers long. Between high rocks you can hang around several times on the ropes attached for safety and always watch out that you …

Just the right thing for this foggy day. This isn't a gorge where you get clammy because of all the water falling down. But it's still very beautiful, wildly romantic with all the little bridges and ropes everywhere you need them.

May 19, 2024,Ruppertsklamm Hike & Lunch

Nice Trail, slippery after heavy rain but with hiking boots no problem. Parking was a bit crazy because of construction side.
Lunch on the other side of the Lahn was yummy!

October 2, 2025,Ruppertsklamm – Hohenrhein/Friedland

At the Ruppertsklamm, you have to climb 235 meters in altitude in the gorge, which is only 1500 meters long. You have to repeatedly clamber along the ropes installed for safety between high rocks.
