Wegmarkierung
We say goodbye to the lake at Kell and steadily climb through a beautiful stream valley into the Osburger High Forest. There we experience one of the highlights of the stage. We cross the moor at Rösterbruch with birches, peat moss cushions, and cotton grass via footbridges.
Then begins the long descent into the Ruwer valley, which first leads us through the deep forests of the Osburger High Forest. After crossing a road, we experience sensational views up to the Eifel until Bonerath. Then it goes through a atmospheric valley down to the Riveris reservoir.
A particularly large bench invites you to rest at the best view of the reservoir. Subsequently, we explore the rock formation “Langenstein” and reach the Ruwer valley, which offers a particularly beautiful section directly on the Ruwer at Waldrach. The goal of the day is the atmospheric wine villages Kasel and Mertesdorf.

Sicherheitshinweise
The Saar-Hunsrück-Steig is a nature-oriented trail, which is 65% led over soft forest floor, grass paths, or along streams. However, this special quality can lead to problems after longer periods of rain, making parts of the path more difficult to walk. Therefore, sturdy footwear is highly recommended.
