Roman Trail: Landscape and history along the way

The Roman Trail begins in Gornhausen and leads through the landscape between the Middle Moselle and the Hunsrück.

The circular hiking route described includes, among other things, the Kaisergarten, several stream valleys, the Barbelleyfelsen and a section of the historic Roman road. These points are part of the route and not automatically part of the village centre.

The Roman Trail has a pronounced elevation profile, with climbs up to the Hunsrück heights. Accommodation in the village is therefore particularly suitable for travel plans that explicitly include this hike and its climbs.

Beyond the Roman Trail, Gornhausen is also included in a cultural trail through several places in the former County of Veldenz. This means that, in addition to the individual hike, another regional trail connection is also an option.

Which accommodation location suits your travel plans

Anyone focusing on hikes in the Hunsrück and Moselle landscapes can consider Gornhausen as a small rural base. If, on the other hand, you are primarily looking for a more urban setting or a denser programme of local activities, you should compare the choice of regional base separately.

When looking for a holiday home or holiday apartment, the day-to-day planning therefore comes first: The route of the Roman Trail and its elevation gains favour a stay in Gornhausen, while a stronger focus on a town or centre brings another regional base into the comparison.
