Stone bridge over the Lahn at Kernbach

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful old bridge. The Lahn is very low here, making it a popular spot for children. There's also a lovely rest area.

Lahn Floodplain

Highlight • River

That was a really nice section on my way from the source of the Lahn to Marburg. Here you can at least see something of the Lahn.

View of the Lahn Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Wichtelhäuser are a group of rocks above Brungershausen. There is a great view from the top of the rocks, especially now that there are no leaves on the trees.

What's going on with you, next to the famous Lahn cycle path?
Small quaint villages and cozy spots by the river that cannot be seen from the bike path. Turn somewhere and it's even more beautiful than before. The nice and wide spot can only be seen from the hiking trail.
