Grüngürtelweg Frankfurt

So let's get started, our Frankfurt Green Belt Trail adventure. In advance, we divided the almost 80-kilometer-long city hiking trail into eleven appetizing snacks, so that we can walk the route comfortably after work after dark as night falls. As far as the start and finish of the respective stages… read more

Our second stage of the green belt trail is to take us from the Waldstein cemetery to the Oberschweinstiege, and of course after the end of the tour we plan to stop at the restaurant in the forest at Jacobiweiher. There we position our target car and drive back to the starting point at the Waldsteinhof… read more

Our third stage on the Green Belt Trail is to take us from the Oberschweinstiege to the Waldradhof Oberrad or to the Goetheturm, where we have parked our target car. From the parking lot at Oberschweinstiegchaussee we walk towards Jacobiweiher. The green armadillo poses in front of the gate of the green… read more

Stage number 4 is on our after-work program today; from the Waldradhof Oberrad to the Heinrich-Kraft-Park. We are particularly excited about this stage, because we cannot imagine that there should be a green belt throughout ...

The car is parked at the cemetery and we walk down Buchrainstrasse into Frankfurt… read more

After the least green stage of the green belt a week ago, we are certain today, if at all, that we will only touch marginally on residential areas. When we park the target car at the bus turning point on Marktstrasse in Bergen-Enkheim, it becomes clear that not even an edge is touched. The whole stage… read more

Our sixth stage on Frankfurt's Green Belt Trail will be the shortest so far at just over four kilometers. Not because we are particularly lazy today, but because the Lohrberg-Schänke is imposing as a milestone.

We begin our “after-work walk” where the last stage ends, at the bus turning point at the eastern… read more

It is 6 p.m. and still unbearably hot when we meet at the Lohrberg parking lot. Looking at the map doesn't make things any better either - just open landscape ... maybe a bit of shade in the Heilsberg settlement and at the end in Berkersheim ... so quickly push the map away again, komoot at full volume… read more

Tonight it is really going to cost us to continue walking on the green belt path. The air is stuffy and humid, not only in the city, but also here on its northern edge in Berkersheim, where the metropolitan area ends and the fields take over.

As soon as we started walking, the closed barrier at the level… read more

Compared to our previous after-work stages on Frankfurt's green belt path, it's tolerable today, even if there's a certain mugginess in the air. The price for the more pleasant temperatures is that the sun hides behind a veil of summer haze, but well, as so often happens, you can't have everything at… read more

Not only in the Brentano and Solmspark, but almost on the whole stage you have the feeling to run through an endlessly long park.

The eleventh and last leg of the Grüngürtelweg is also the most beautiful.
