Point to point
A tour that has it in mind. From Deuselbach to Reinsfeld, the Hunsrück-Hochwald National Park is crossed completely once. The start and end points can be reached by bus. In the "primeval forest of tomorrow" you can see, among other things, beech forests rich in old wood, carnivorous plants and orchids. You can also find Europe's largest population of wild cats and, with a bit of luck, red deer, roe deer and wild boar. In addition to nature, there is also a lot of history here: numerous relics are reminiscent of the times of the Romans and Celts.
