The Hunsrück Railway Hiking Trail leads from Emmelshausen railway station to Boppard am Rhein railway station. Combine a beautiful hiking tour with an unforgettable ride on the Hunsrück Railway, the steepest railway line north of the Alps. Take a look at the Hubertus Viaduct from Liesenfeld`s Hütte before the trail passes under the impressive bridge structure. Another highlight of the trail is the Elfenlay with great views over the Rhine loop.
Author’s recommendation
The building of the railway station in Emmelshausen is still from the time
