A very exciting path for which you need to have a good sense of running. Many people still walk here with strollers, even though you have to climb quite a bit in places. But you are rewarded with great views.

Breathtaking, and a must-see. Unfortunately a bit out of the way, but definitely worth the trip! Worth mentioning: There's a toilet trailer at Annette Bridge!

a really great landscape for canyoning and biking. This Geierlay offers more than just a thrill - lots of fresh, clean air and relaxation in the immediate vicinity of the beautiful Moselle! highly recommended - just great!

The bridge is 360 meters long and 100 meters high, about as high as the Siegtalbrücke in Eiserfeld.

This is probably the shortest circuit that includes the suspension bridge. BUT... endless mud, you should make sure that it doesn't rain beforehand.

It is important to have sturdy shoes. The paths are not so easy to walk. We saw families with children's carts and small children. You really shouldn't risk that. And you can only use the suspension bridge as a one way.

After checking into our holiday apartment with parking right in the center of town in the afternoon, we took the short walk to the Geierlay Bridge – the walk through the forest on both sides at the edge of the valley was much nicer than the rather boring path through the fields. However, we skipped the walk under the bridge …

Beautiful circular tour, only recommended with hiking boots. The suspension rope bridge is the highlight for those with a head for heights 👍

Nice hiking trail for those who don't want to be on the road for so long. Sturdy shoes and sure-footedness should be available. Not suitable for bicycles, prams, etc. A round trip on paths away from paved roads through nature.
From the bridge, the usual tourism picks up.

The path is exciting, but I would not walk it in the wet and make sure I wear good shoes.
We ate in a Tai restaurant, right on the route, …

After our tour on the medieval path yesterday, today we were supposed to go to the Geierlay suspension bridge.

We only planned a short tour because the children were sleepy... 😅🫣 It was still nice, even if the view was a bit of an issue today. On the other hand, the bridge wasn't that crowded today.
