April 16, 2024,Gewagter Seitensprung auf dem Leiermannspfad

The weather had everything to offer today: rain 💦, storm 💨 and sun ☀️. Up to Starkenburg it was a dream tour on the Moselsteig, but back from Starkenburg to Enkirch was more of an ordeal - only wide forest paths, no places to sit. Our tip for the Leiermannpfad: turn around halfway and walk back 😊
Here is a …

A very nice round trip from Enkirch... first downhill with great views of the Moselle. Over slate and past a stone exchange station. At the highest point we took a break and ate our cake while swinging... we really liked the town of Starkenburg. Finally down through the valley. A little rain but a lot more sunshine. Nice round trip …

NOTE: If you intend to hike this tour as well, you should definitely import the ORIGINAL gpx data! ⚠️

wanderinstitut.de/gpx/leiermannspfad.gpx

Because I got lost right at the start of the tour. Because there was no route announcement (of course, I should have just gone straight ahead), I followed the visible hiking signs (and turned right), which initially led me in …

On the last day of our Moselle holiday we start hiking directly at our holiday apartment around the "Moselsteig Seitensprung Leiermannspfad".
To start, we took the small passenger ferry across the Moselle to the town of Enkirch. The first part of the path leads behind the mountain of the Moselle valley and runs unspectacularly up to the village of Starkenburg, …

April 24, 2025,❤️: Mosel / Moselsteig-Seitensprung: Leiermannspfad

That was a really beautiful tour today 😍. We hiked counterclockwise and had the challenging elevation gain right at the beginning. Since Komoot deleted the pre-saved tour halfway through, we oriented ourselves using the trail markers. This worked perfectly. In Enkirch, we had to take the last kilometer along the road because a tree had fallen on the actual hiking …

A "flirt" on the Moselle ....
but this time one that leaves us with mixed feelings.

First of all, in the direction we chose, a steep ascent already in the village and beyond to the first premium view "Rottenblick" ...
then follows on the further course of the Moselsteig on the panorama path a "firework display" of fantastic views.

Very nice tour. To Starkenburg through the forest. From Starkenburg then on a rocky ridge to Enkirch with what feels like 10 vantage points with associated huts. 👍
