To be honest, the tour is not possible. The only beautiful places are Limburg and the view of Oranienburg Castle. Diez is depressing because many of the beautiful half-timbered houses are run down and many of the shops in the old town are empty. But if you like the clear view of a prison and a path along the Lahn …

Now in Limburg it was supposed to be dry by 4 p.m., at least that worked. But it's the same as always. Hiking along small rivers is just tough.

Short quick lap around Limburg, through the old town of Limburg and Diez, along the Lahn and visited the churches.
On this occasion I picked up my missed stamps from the Lahn-Camino.

Happy Saturday everyone 🙋🏻‍♂️

The route was once an IVV tour. Unfortunately, the surface was almost entirely asphalt. You don't need hiking boots.
There were no spectacular sights either. Still, it was a nice tour, especially in today's wonderful weather. Good thing I used the S30 sunscreen 😁☀️
