Highlight • Viewpoint

A very beautiful viewing point that you can pass on the “Afelskreuzweg” circular route. Trade routes and pilgrimage routes were laid out in this area in ancient times, and today many beautiful hiking trails also run along them.

I really wanted to follow this home trail to find the memorial stone of the Matthias Brotherhood Adenau. On our hikes we have already found so many memories/memorial stones of the pilgrimage from the Rhineland to the Matthias grave in Trier, but not yet the stone of the Adenau group.

Sarmersbach has a few hikes up its sleeve and today we wanted to tackle the second. Wonderful weather, you can already see the first small forest berries.
