The entrance doesn't look all that spectacular, and you might think it's definitely somewhere else. But if you descend the stairs and follow the path, you'll be surprised by what I consider its gigantic dimensions. In the center, you'll find yourself in front of bizarre rock formations.

Continuation of hike 17 after a change of location to the Teufelsschlucht car park in Ernzen.

From the parking lot you go via the Dino Park, which like everything here only opens with the Easter holidays, as well as the nature conservation center with restaurants to the entrance to the Devil's Gorge.

On the way home from Trier we have planned two very short stops. The first was Devil's Canyon.

It was a wonderful experience, such impressive rock formations that you climb down into the gorge...
On narrow stairs it goes steeply downhill at the beginning (no idea why Komoot only calculates 30 hm 😅), some passages are very narrow, one even …
