The trail winds through the fortress high above the confluence of the Rhine and the Moselle, lit by what the organizer calls millions of points of light. The cable car from the Rhine gardens below is the way up, and the combined ticket includes the return ride. It opens at 16:30 and shuts on six dates, including Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
