Our "side trip" on the Moselsteig

Along the Moselsteig, there are many charming opportunities to take a "detour." In total, we have counted 16 "side trips"; without exception, they all meet the criteria for premium routes and are certified with the German Hiking Seal. The official side trips can be found here: http://www.moselsteig.de/die-partnerwege/
Here is our suggestion for a "side trip." We are not submitting it for certification, so if you like, you must enjoy it without a "seal": Between Pommern and Karden through the Pommerbach valley, across the heights of the Mosel Eifel to Brückbach, and through the Brohlbach valley to Karden. The tour is extremely varied: lonely stream valleys, wide views from the heights, culture in Karden and on the Martberg, as well as the Mosel panorama offer an entertaining program. The section on the K31 is bearable; the side road to the Windhäuser farms just before Karden is hardly trafficked.
The attractions:
The lonely stream valleys of the Pommerbach and Brohlbach
The waterfall of the Brohlbach (height: 4 m; main fall: 2 m)
St. Castor, the Romanesque former collegiate church in Karden
The Archaeology Park Martberg
The panoramic trail above Karden with views over the town and Mosel valley

Two rushing wild streams, dreamlike views into the Moselle Valley, and a legendary, historically significant mountain ridge shape this magnificent 23-kilometer circular hike through the Pommer and Brohlbach valleys. The solitude in the narrow, deeply cut ravine valleys is hardly surpassed. Countless bridges and footbridges cross the waters, while the route winds through the floodplains on narrow trails. However, the circular hike is not consistently signposted. It is therefore recommended to carry the hiking map of the Eifelverein "Ferienland Cochem", scale 1:25,000, with you. In addition, the wet meadows in the Pommerbach valley are not always mowed. Tick protection is therefore advisable.

The Pommerbach Hiking Trail, which runs fromKaisersesch to the wine-growing village of Pommern on the Moselle, is considered one ofthe most scenic valley hiking trails in the Moseifel region. Seventeen footbridges span the stream as it meanders naturally through deciduous forests; in the forests and meadows along its banks, purple-edged fritillaries, wildcats, black woodpeckers, green lizards, eagle owls, and Apollo butterflieshave found a refuge.
