View of the Moselle Bend at Bremm

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Moselle loop near Bremm is the most famous of the many river bends of the Moselle. The Stuben monastery ruins and the Petersberg in the background complete the picture. You can look directly at it from the Calmont summit - and also a little below, i.e. from the via ferrata.

Calmont via ferrata

Highlight • Climb

One of the longer ones on the Moselle, which is quite feasible if you have a little surefootedness. In summer it is very crowded at least on the weekends.

This path is not accessible with dogs unless you want to carry them etc. The paths are too narrow for dogs...you can safely ignore the comments...small dog maybe but the rest not easy to do, had to carry my small and medium-sized dogs and this was very dangerous...nevertheless this path is very demanding but the view is worth it

Vacation planning in advance, the via ferrata had to be included. So, a somewhat longer journey was accepted. At the destination, the first sweat broke out. If someone came towards us now, I'm not going back! Parking lot with a view of our first destination, the summit cross. What, so steep? Phew, I should have read the fine print. No …

The via ferrata is NOT suitable for dogs. Unless you have the "mountain goat" type. Several ladder sections make it very difficult, if not impossible, for dogs – bypassing it is difficult.

Mostly a nice round, but it's better to start from Galgenlay, then you have the climbing path at the beginning and you're still fresh. You can park parallel to the B49 at the railway bridge, where paragliders land. The descent to Ellerbach is unpleasant. The forest path has been widened and leveled for about 2km, it feels like you're on …
