"...We now follow the Moselsteig and walk through the forest again (this time on wider paths). In between we get a few opportunities to enjoy a wonderful view of Eltz Castle. We continue along forest paths until we reach the former forester's house Rotherhof. There are no places to stop here, but at least tree trunks lying by the side of the path offer us a place to sit. So we take a short break with a view of the nice-looking forester's house..." Find out more about our idyllic hike to Eltz Castle at: https://www.netreisetagebuch.de/burg-eltz-wandern/

This is a site that was inhabited by people thousands of years ago, as can be proven by archaeological finds. Visitors of our modern times are invited to stay at least for a short time. Some will certainly be happy to take advantage of the opportunity offered here after the climb.

To be honest, the name leaves me a little perplexed: why did someone back then come up with the - to me incomprehensible - idea of naming an ore mine in the Hunsrück after the deity Apollo from Greek mythology, and the god of the sea at that?

Unfortunately, the tunnel entrance is blocked by a massive grille. It is also completely flooded. A pity!
