Path to Rittersturz

Highlight • Trail

Great parking lot. Beautiful route. The "shortcut" up the forest path is tough, but shorter and easy to walk.

A great parking lot to start a tour. Excellent connections, free of charge and with all the options. Whether by bike or without, running or hiking, from here you can go along the Rhine, into the Koblenz city forest in the direction of Waldesch or over the Rittersturz, everything is possible from here.

The Königsbachtal is a partially walkable valley that you can hike along the RheinBurgenWeg. The Königsbach rises below the Dommelsberg, on which a Celtic ring wall settlement existed 2000 years ago. The Königsbach is only 854 meters long and flows through a V valley. It flows into the Rhine below the Koblenz brewery.

Rittersturz Memorial and Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

According to legend, in the Middle Ages, a heartbroken knight fell from the rock platform into the depths. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Rittersturz developed into a popular place for excursions. At first there was only a small forest tavern up here, then in the 1920s an elegant hotel was built. However, the hotel was demolished in the late 1970s.

In 1948, the Prime Ministers of the West German federal states met in the hotel and agreed on the merger to form the Federal Republic of Germany. The dark basalt column on the platform is a reminder of this today.
