Mühlenweg

The Mühlenweg is a hiking trail in Rhineland-Palatinate that passes through varied landscapes with forests, meadows, and rock formations. It connects locations where water mills once operated to grind grain and process other materials.

The trail developed during the region's industrial period when water mills were central to the local economy. The mill sites continue to mark the landscape today, reflecting the area's craft heritage.

The name directly references the mills that once operated here, reflecting how these workplaces shaped settlement patterns and community life in the region. Walking the route today, you can still see how villages grew around these important sites.

Bring navigation tools, sufficient water, and appropriate footwear since the route has both easy and moderate sections. Pay attention to the trail markers at junctions to stay on the correct path.

Multiple mill remnants remain visible along the route as physical evidence of the area's craft tradition. These structures let you see where the actual work took place rather than simply reading about it.
