Forest Path to the Geierlay Suspension Bridge

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A very exciting path for which you need to have a good sense of running. Many people still walk here with strollers, even though you have to climb quite a bit in places. But you are rewarded with great views.

From a free parking to the longest suspension bridge in Germany. (360 meters) Beautiful and a "to do" if you are on holiday in the area. Both the walk and the bridge were worth it.

Today Fritz and I drove to the Hunsrück because the famous Geierlay suspension bridge was waiting for us. The so-called Geierlights take place on the third weekend in Advent. The 360m long suspension bridge, which hovers 100m above the Mörsdorf stream valley, is illuminated with more than 7,000 LEDs. We set off from one of the car parks in Mörsdorf …

Very nice tour .. It is a shame that it is not regulated when you enter the bridge. So the enjoyment was sometimes not so nice because people stopped in front of it all the time and it made me a little queasy. With enough distance everything was great.

A nice tour, even if it was a bit crowded at the beginning up to the Geierlay suspension bridge for my taste. On the way to the bridge you have the feeling that huge crowds of people would make a pilgrimage there.
But the section to the bridge is not particularly long. And the section after that always makes up …
