Dortebachtal

Dortebachtal is a designated nature reserve near Klotten in the Cochem-Zell district of Rhineland-Palatinate. The valley follows the course of the Dortebach stream through forested slopes above the Moselle, protecting habitats that include wet meadows, streamside vegetation, and deciduous woodland. Its seclusion makes it a quieter walking alternative to the busy Moselle tourist trail. Detailed reserve data is available through the Rhineland-Palatinate nature conservation portal.
