Bench with a View of Landshut Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

A rest bench below the youth hostel offers a view of Landshut Castle and the day trippers streaming in from the car park.
The seating at the castle itself is usually permanently occupied.

View of the Moselle River and Bernkastel-Kues from the Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

Probably the best view of the Moselle loop and Bernkastel-Kues is from the keep of Landshut Castle (only when the restaurant is open and €1 is paid at the vending machine). But even from the castle courtyard, the view is breathtaking.

Tiefenbach Waterfall (Bernkastel-Kues)

Highlight • Waterfall

The Tiefenbach, which has its source between Longkamp and Gonzerath, meanders through a narrow valley to Bernkastel and flows into the Moselle there. Even though it is only a small stream, it forms an impressive waterfall that roars beautifully, especially after heavy rainfall. Directly above the waterfall, the Tinkel Chapel, which is well worth seeing, stands on a rock.

Tinkel Chapel Above the Waterfall

Highlight • Religious Site

Pretty little chapel on the slate rock above the waterfall. The stairs should be climbed with caution, as they are often slippery! The crevice in the rock at the waterfall, whose jagged profile can be interpreted as a chicken's head and is therefore called "det Hinkel", has given the chapel towering above it the name Tinkel Chapel.
