A fantastic climb. Great opportunities to rest, great views, doable with children and great as a circular hiking trail via the Calmont Höhenwanderweg.

Nice via ferrata. Surefootedness and a head for heights are required on the entire trail. There are plenty of places to rest, take photos and get information.

View of the Moselle Bend at Bremm

Highlight • Viewpoint

Did this tour after a fear of heights course and it went great, so silky. It's a great track. The views there are very worthwhile!

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.

Hey

Here's the video for the tour:

A via ferrata that isn't one...🫣
Someone must have made a mistake. 🤔
The Calmont via ferrata doesn't deserve to be called a "via ferrata" at all. 😒
At no point was it more than a hiking trail. 👎🏼
The via ferrata equipment can safely be left at home. No one on the whole tour even remotely wore a harness …

A challenging but very beautiful route. Summit wine included.

Showing Translation

Difficult tour with challenging terrain! Contains short "easy" climbing sections. Sturdy shoes are a must. Take enough food with you, especially drinks. There is a hut at the summit cross that serves food from April to October. A head for heights and surefootedness are a must for this tour! Very strenuous, but worth it. Alpine feeling on the Moselle.

Today we walk the Calmont Klettersteig. The Calmont is the steepest vineyard in Europe. We start at Ediger-Eller. Soon it starts to climb, and also considerable parts where you really have to scramble and pull up with steel cables. Sometimes you also climb with a ladder, sometimes there are steps in the rocks. Soon we also come to a vineyard …

Adventure in the steepest vineyard in Europe. The path leads over dizzying ladders, past striking rock spurs. Steel cables offer you support as you cross a majestic rock ridge. Let yourself be enchanted by the wonderful panorama between the towns of Bremm and Ediger-Eller, with a view of the Stuben monastery ruins, which rise up on the narrowest and most …

Important: you should be free from vertigo and wear sturdy shoes, unbelievable what kind of shoes some people wear on such a path

Showing Translation

A wonderful hike that can push the inexperienced to their limits. We started in Bremm at the parking lot (free of charge) above the cemetery. The via ferrata is more of an adventurous hike, but hiking boots and sufficient drinking water are strongly recommended. There are no opportunities to stop for a break either on the high-altitude hiking trail or …
