Burgruine und Gierseilfähre Polle

Directly below the historic castle ruins in Polle in the Solling-Vogler region in the Weserbergland, the yaw rope ferry crosses the Weser every day.

The Polle yaw rope ferry can ferry vehicles weighing up to 40 tons. It generally runs all year round and the crossing takes around 5 minutes.
