The Saynsteig dream trail, highly recommended. From Sayn Castle 🏰 to Stromberg, not the one from Lafer. 👨‍🍳🤣 Back through the Brex Valley, wild, romantic, and almost jungle-like. Back in Sayn, another detour to the butterfly garden. 🦋🦋 And you, had a lovely day 😀🍻

We decided to take a day off and hike this dream trail as a couple. Very varied and great to walk. Muddy at km9 along the stream. Otherwise a great hike!! But it's 16.3km instead of the stated 15.3km 😁

The dream path Saynsteig offers an exciting castle at the beginning and then a lot of forest for a long time. This is passed on beaten paths and forest roads. This is followed by great passages along a stream and after two climbs you reach the Roman Tower. From here it is almost all downhill back to the castle.
Great …

The Saynsteig mostly has beautiful forest sections that are a little reminiscent of the Eifelsteig between Monschau and Einruhr. In the sections over fields and meadows you usually have a wonderful view of the Rhine Valley.

From the free hiking parking lot (directly opposite the paid parking lot at the "House of Butterflies"), we set off around 10:15 a.m. on the 200-meter-long access path to the official starting …

A few meters of altitude have to be conquered. You will be rewarded with great views. It goes through brightly colored beech forests (at this time) and through a wild, romantic stream valley.
You urgently need sure-footedness, fitness and non-slip and waterproof shoes, as the paths in the stream valley are extremely muddy and slippery.
Overall, a very nice and …
