easy hike through the vineyard site "Klostergarten" to the "Wolfer Monastery" (ruin of the Church of Our Lady)

The path leads on partly asphalted, partly gravelled surface with slight incline through vineyards to the "Wolfer Monastery" (ruin of the Church of Our Lady of the Kogel lords). From there, it goes downhill along the forest edge over vineyard paths and through a brook valley back to the starting point at the Wolf ship landing stage.
The path is passable in any weather. It offers repeatedly magnificent views of the Mosel, the opposite vineyards and rock faces, and the village of Wolf.
