View of Bennauer See

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the viewpoint opened in 2012, you have a beautiful view of Lake Bennauer. The former basalt quarry was filled with ground and surface water in the 1950s.

Ehrenstein Castle Ruins and Monastery

Highlight • Castle

If you keep to the right when visiting the castle, you can crawl through a small opening and climb the castle. I find it very interesting that the rear tower has a proper platform at the top.

Peterslahr Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

The 156 meter long Peterslahr tunnel on the former railway line of the Wiedtalbahn, which led from Linz to Altenkirchen, is illuminated and can therefore be accessed without an additional flashlight.

From the source to the mouth of the Grenzbach is a great tip for nature lovers and those seeking peace and quiet. Also ideally suited as a nature trail with children and there are also some "adventures" to be experienced.

Wied Valley

Highlight • River

Nice, quiet route along the Wied, either with a racing bike on the road, as a MTB or gravel cyclist on the embankment or on the Wieswanderweg.
