Saar-Hunsrück Climb - 19th Leg: Blankenrath - Mittelstrimmig – Mörsdorf

Roman excavations near Mittelstrimmig

Near Mittelstrimmig the remains of a Roman settlement (vicus) were found during excavations. It was on an important Celtic-Roman road.

"Schockkapelle” at Mittelstrimmig

It stands on the route of the gallows of the Winneberg-Beilstein counts from the Middle Ages. Those sentenced to death were led past the chapel to the gallows in the Middle Ages.

The Mittelstrimmig parish church, a three-aisled, five-bay hall church, was built between 1766 and 1769.

Geierlay suspension bridge - the most beautiful suspension bridge in Germany is connected to the Saar-Hunsrück-Steig via an access path. 360 meters long and 100 meters high above the Mörsdorfer Bachtal between the communities of Sosberg and Mörsdorf, the bridge is an attraction for adventurers and those with a head for heights.

The Saar-Hunsrück Climb is a natural path that is on soft forest floor, grass paths or alongside streams for 65% of its route. But this special quality can result in problems after long periods of rain, making parts of the route difficult to walk. We therefore recommend wearing sturdy shoes.
