Maps and trails
Geographically, Vollmersbach is located near the Hunsrück-Hochwald National Park and is surrounded by beautiful forests. The town itself has a quiet atmosphere and offers visitors the opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of the big city.

One of Vollmersbach's tourist highlights is undoubtedly Birkenfeld Castle. It was built in the 17th century and today houses a museum as well as a beautiful garden for walking. Another highlight are the many hiking trails in the area, including parts of the famous Saar-Hunsrück Trail.

Cultural highlights are also many: The Alte Schule cultural centre regularly hosts concerts and exhibitions by local artists. The annual town festival also attracts many visitors and offers live music, food stalls and much more.

For culinary delights, we recommend a visit to a traditional inn such as the "Zum Goldenen Lamm". Here you can enjoy typical dishes from Rhineland-Palatinate or simply drink a cold beer.

If you like to be active outdoors, then it is best to come to Vollmersbach between spring and autumn - then you can enjoy numerous outdoor activities such as hiking or cycling. In winter, you can also go skiing or ice skating in the area.

Even when it rains, there is plenty to do in Vollmersbach: For example, visit the Birkenfeld natural swimming pool with its sauna and various swimming pools. Or take a trip to nearby Trier to visit the Roman ruins.

In summary, Vollmersbach is a destination that is equally suitable for nature lovers and culture enthusiasts. The town offers a peaceful atmosphere and many opportunities for relaxation and recreation. Come and visit - it's worth it!

    Toller Steig. Sehr hoher Pfad- und Naturweg-Anteil. Geschickte Routenführung. Tolle Aussichten und viel Sehenswertes am Wegesrand. Lediglich vom Nattionalpark ansich war ich etwas enttäuscht, hier ging es zeitweilig recht lange über geradlinige Schotterwege. Aber das ist Jammern auf hohem Niveua ;-) Einkaufsmöglichkeiten waren streckenweise etwas rar, das hat Improvisation erfordert. Ich freue mich schon auf die zweite Hälfte ab Idar-Oberstein bis an den Rhein...
