Attractions in Rhein-Lahn-Kreis

A highlight on the Rheinsteig. Good tread resistance and footwear must be present

After 245 kilometers, the Lahn flows into the Rhine. A great sight, especially in front of the magnificent backdrop of the wooded banks of the Rhine with Schloss Stolzenfels.

The Marksburg is the only castle never destroyed on the Middle Rhine. In the castle there is a very good gastronomy and there are guided tours offered at regular times, which take about 50 minutes.

Bad Ems is a very sophisticated health resort with a beautiful and manageable park on the Lahn, extremely well-kept buildings, cafes, restaurants and a classic grand hotel as in Monaco.

The only castle in the Middle Rhine Valley that was not destroyed.

Very nice to drive in the summer. To Bad Ems, eat ice cream and then back to Koblenz :-)

Really a dreamlike Klamm👌

Nice bike path along the Lahn

Great, quiet bike path along the Lahn. If you drive past the boat moorings of the campsite, you may see canoeists, stand up paddlers and fishermen. Super connection path from Lahnstein to Bad Ems.

From the Felsenkanzel you have a magnificent view along the Rhine direction Oberwesel and the Loreley rock. Not far away you will come to the almost 200 meters high Spitznack. …read more

Nice barbecue, if necessary, you can sit with a hundred people ...

An idyllic city on the Lahn

Insanely beautiful and idyllic. Very good to driving way along the water. Just to enjoy.

Have a good breakfast before the ascent 😊

The castle is unfortunately open only for certain sightseeing or concert dates.

The first 2/3 of the trail is very flowing with a slight slope and a few obstacles that you can skip or avoid (S1 +). The last third consists of some steeper switchbacks (S2).

Narrow way for bicycles without trailer to create good. Requires increased attention in some places, but a real alternative to the official very steep detour via wooden appels. The bike path directly on the shore should probably be expanded.

In 1245, the castle Lahneck is first mentioned in a document. It sits enthroned on the 164 meter high spur of rock above the Lahn river. From March to November, …read more

This is exactly where Goethe, fleeing an unhappy love, said: "To die for!". If you are up here, you can only agree with that! Attention, now it's downhill - get ready for a little bit of bracing.

In the castle is a cafe, which offers itself for a break. On the castle terrace you have a beautiful view of the Rhine and from Burgstübchen a wonderful view of the castle Sterrenberg. It's worth a visit!
