How to reach Hängeseilbrücke Geierlay by using a Schönes Wochenende pass?

I would like to have a one day visit of the Geierlay Footbridge (Fußgängerseilbrücke, don't know the English word for it).

We are a group of 5 people who would like to visit it on a weekend using only local transport from Stuttgart (or preferably from Friedrichshafen but the group joins in Stuttgart). I searched online in Deutsche Bahn for a connection but it does not give any connections with the above mentioned parameters. I searched for a connection to Mörsdorf.

Is there anybody who has done it already or could anybody tell me why DB does not support this? It provides connections on weekdays.

I know I am not allowed to request to plan itineraries using this forum but any pointers on how I could undertake this trip on a weekend using Regionalverkehr would be nice to know.

The only way would be to take the train to Koblenz, and then take the bus from there, which takes approx. 2,5 hours. I found the bus connection only on www.vrminfo.de, so it's possible, that the Schöne-Wochenend-Ticket is not valid there, thus it's not found by bahn.de. Honestly, if you really want to do that, i'd suggest to take the train to Koblenz and then take a rental car from there.
