This hike leads along the Rhine promenade in Unkel and over Orsberg to the "Erpeler Ley" viewing platform. On the way back, we also visit the St. Johann Baptist pilgrimage church in Bruchhausen.
Unkel is known not only as a red wine town but also as the residence of famous personalities such as Willy Brandt, Ferdinand Freiligrath, Stefan Andres, and Annette von Droste-Hülshoff. Bruchhausen gained fame among pilgrims thanks to its Catholic parish church St. Johann Baptist, which houses two special images of grace that attract countless visitors every year.
