It's a successful redesign of the river's course. Here, the Nidda has some space to expand.

Nidda Cycle Path Groß-Karben

Highlight • Cycleway

The Niddaradweg is always scenically interesting and varied. In the middle area the beaver has settled again and in the Frankfurt area the coypu.

Nidda Cycle Path near Dortelweil

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Another particularly beautiful section on the Nidda cycle path. Between Bad Vilbel and Karben lies the Nidda-Auen nature reserve. Here you will find rare animal and plant species.

July 9, 2024,Erkundungstour mit Margit und Hanne
