Hausen, Birkenfeld also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine: Try regional specialities such as the Hunsrück spit roast or enjoy a good wine directly from the vintner.

    Es sind seit Verfassen des Beitrages offenbar neue Wege auf der Strecke hinzugekommen, die die Orientierung laut Text schwierig machen, besonders zwischen der Ortschaft Woppenroth und der L162. Dort muss man an der zweiten Weggabelung den Abstieg rechts, nicht den Weg links, nehmen. An der L162 geht es erst rechts, dann links. Der Weg zur Hellkirch ist etwas undeutlich beschrieben. Besser hier den Schildern folgen. Ansonsten tolle Strecke!

    Sehr anspruchsvoll diese Tour. Leider wurde die Wegbeschreibung noch nicht geändert, wie im Kommentar abgegeben, deshalb sind wir zuerst falsch gelaufen. Ansonsten sehr schöne Aussichtspunkte. Wenn man die Keltensiedlung besuchen möchte, muss man die Tickets am Kiosk vom Besucherstollen kaufen!
