I had parked in Oberlahnstein and it went quickly down and over the railway track and then over a small bridge to the other side of the Lahn. Up to the B 260, after crossing it continue to the entrance to the gorge.
Unfortunately, the narrow path to …

Finally, on the way home from Bad Ems, we took a small detour towards Koblenz and hiked a loop through the Ruppertsklamm.
Parking along the road with the construction site is a bit of a hit and miss, but in the early evening it worked out well. I really liked the Ruppertsklamm. I think you could definitely put together a …
