Highlight • Settlement

The Zeller Schwarze Katz from the steep slope is a very special Riesling and man

Square Tower

Highlight • Historical Site

In addition to providing protection from troops from the Zeller Bachtal, the tower also served as a customs station. At one point it was also used as an official prison. The tower used to have corner towers and a steep roof, which are no longer preserved. In 1899, a gate was broken into the tower and has since served as the lower entrance to the cemetery.

Collis Tower viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

For the best view, a viewing platform was set up in the vineyard a few steps below the tower. The distant view over the so-called Zeller Hamm is extraordinary.
When the weather is good, a hut next to the observation tower provides drinks and small meals. You can tell from the valley whether the bar is open by a waving blue flag.

Collisturm

Highlight • Monument

The Collis Tower was financed and built in 1906 only by donations. From the small brick tower with its observation deck you have a great view of the Mosel valley. At the weekend, a small kiosk opens at the Collis Tower between 11am and 5pm.

August 25, 2022,Von Zell (Mosel) nach Zell (Mosel) Teilweise Rundweg Liebesschlucht
After the steep path towards Collisturm, the app guided us to a path that was no longer a path, see pictures. Otherwise the tour was great. The route can also be mastered at over 30°C, as some sections of the route were in the oak forest.

This time the start was quite idyllic right on the Moselle near Zell. After a hidden waterfall and a short detour through the stream tower to the cemetery, we reached the entrance to the via ferrata. We were really surprised. The crampons and the ladder were a bit of a challenge for us, and on the second short climb, one …

What sounds so romantic has its name from the "Liebesbach", which is actually called Lienischbach.

Since @🅰️ndrea spends her vacation on the Moselle, a tour in Zell was an option, as she would definitely have fun on the Collis steep path with the climbing sections. So it went from the Black Cat Fountain straight up to the Collis Tower, which …

This morning, I took public transport to Zell on the Moselle again. The weather was great, and so was the hike. First, I walked along paved paths through the vineyards to the start of the Collis Steilpfad (Collis steep path). Since I was familiar with this section from the Moselsteig Trail, I followed the singletrack over the steep path to …

The ascent to the Collis tower is possible on the steep path, you can avoid the climbing passages. The path is steep, narrow, on many stone steps. Surefootedness required.

Colli's steep paths & the love gorge
Actually it was supposed to go there this morning. Actually there was still time this afternoon😉

Today, in mediocre weather, we went from Zell through the Liebesschlucht over the Marienhöhe to the Collis Tower and back through the vineyards.
We did not use the via ferrata shortcut at the Collis Tower.
