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.

This is one of the more than 100 existing "Saar-Hunsrück dream loops" that make the large area south of the Moselle very attractive as a hiking destination. In the brochure it is described with the words "With magnificent views, the hiking trail leads from the Hunsrück plateau ... into the deep Ehrbach valley. In complete isolation, the path runs along a narrow path along the stream. There are steep ascents and descents with ... surprising views." The dream loop is 8.5 kilometers long, 390 meters in altitude and is described as taking 3 to 4 hours to walk.

With an adventure effect it goes through the Ruppertsklamm. Sometimes over the jetty, bridge and also along the steel cable. Top!

What an adventure! I hiked down the gorge. Not quite as optimal. It's better to go up. There are steel cables to hold on to in the steep places. You need those too. But it was just fun.
