Soonwaldsteig

On the Trail of Schinderhannes

Nature and hiking – the new Quality Trail, Soonwaldsteig in Soonwald and Nahe Nature Park, provides the perfect combination!

Bitter-beautiful plateaus alternate with deeply incised valleys, and extensive deciduous forests ensure fresh, oxygen-filled air and a healthy climate.

A large diversity of flora and fauna species accompany the hiker, as well as the historical testimonies of old walls deep in the forest, while castles and palaces on hilly spurs tell of the Celts and the Romans.

The Soonwaldsteig takes the hiker through an almost untouched wilderness, the like of which is rarely found these days. Pure nature and a gentle calm accompany you in this gentle and enjoyable route.

Soft forest paths alternate with narrow rocky tracks, steep ascents and descents, but also quiet stretches, with time for contemplation, characterise the diversity of the long-distance trail.

32 viewing towers and viewpoints guarantee great panoramic views in good weather.

Take the time to enjoy the ca. 85 km from Kirn an der Nahe to Bingen am Rhein. Long-distance trail with alternating hotels and luggage transfer.
