Saar-Hunsrück Climb - 26th leg: Stausee Kell - Bonerath - Riveris - Waldrach - Kasel/ Mertesdorf
We say goodbye to the reservoir in Kell and climb steadily uphill through a beautiful brook valley into the Osburger Hochwald. There we experience one of the highlights of the stage. We cross the moor at the Rösterbruch with birch trees, peat moss cushions and pipe grass.
Then the long descent into the Ruwer valley begins, which first leads us through the deep forests of the Osburger Hochwald. After crossing a street we experience sensational views as far as Bonerath as far as the Eifel. Then it goes through an atmospheric valley down to the Riveris dam. At the most beautiful view of the dam, a particularly large bench invites you to rest. We then explore the “Langenstein” rock formation and reach the Ruwer valley, which near Waldrach offers us a particularly beautiful passage directly on the Ruwer. The day's destination is the atmospheric wine towns of Kasel and Mertesdorf.
