May 29, 2025,Kueser Plateau ▶️ Dreifaltigkeit ▶️Grainskopfturm▶️Skywalk 🔄

Father's Day: today with a little bit of nostalgia. 🥰
I retook the loop we last did in the fog.
Today the visibility was better.
We set off again from the parking lot on the Kues Plateau. First, I pass through the beautiful spa gardens.
Then a wide forest and field path leads towards the Trinity.
I have childhood memories …

December 1, 2024,Weinberge über Bernkastel-Kues – Runde vom Kueser Plateau

For a sibling hike and subsequent visit to a dear relative, you can leave the sunny Eifel behind and drive down to the foggy Moselle.

But the tour certainly had its (mystical) charms.

June 8, 2023,Wanderung zum Grainskopf

In the morning, with the sun behind us, we walked from the Kueser Plateau along the Moselhöhenweg. First you have Lieser with the Moselle and later the old Moselle valley in view.

So beautiful and relaxing, how far the eye can wander here.

August 13, 2024,Wanderung zur Paulskirche in den Weinhängen

Because the entire therapy program in the afternoon was canceled due to the high temperatures, I went for a hike. I had noticed the Paulskirche in the vineyards several times and it was my destination today. From a distance, with the surrounding vines, it looks more impressive than up close. Unfortunately, it is also closed off and you can hardly …

August 10, 2024,Vom Kurpark zum Grainskopf (und zurück)

This morning we went a little further. With another heart patient (Safety First) we went over the Kueser and Wehlener Plateau to the Dreifaltigkeit memorial cross and from there on the first climb after 4 1/2 weeks up to the Grainskopf, a 12 m high observation tower built in 1896, which we of course climbed. The otherwise almost flat hike …
