Low mountain range Hunsruck in Rhineland-Palatinate

This footpath named after the Roman poet Ausonius runs from Bingen in the Hunsr�ck to Trier on the Moselle, following the ancient Roman military route across the ridges of the Hunsr�ck hills. As you pass through forests and Hunsr�ck villages, there are still plenty of reminders of the Roman past, both in museums and along the route. After Heidenp�tz in Elzerath the footpath divides. The older Hunsr�ck route presented here runs for 125 kilometres across the peaks, rising and falling as it cuts through the valleys. The 140 kilometre Moselle route followed by Ausonius runs from Heidenp�tz to the Moselle at Neumagen/Dhron, then follows the meandering river as far as Trier.
