The ruins are interesting!
Attention, the trail is demanding!

The Hausenborn pilgrimage chapel:
Very nicely situated chapel. I was lucky that there was even a church service.

Just fantastic to look at.

Nice old abandoned monastery in the middle of the forest.

It is unbelievable that such a ruined monastery appears between the trees in the middle of the pampas. A real experience, as if you had landed in the Middle Ages.

After the super nice beginning part one comes then to the charming chapel, madness what's there in the forest.

A ruined monastery in the middle of the forest.
Here you can plan a longer break as there is a lot to discover.

This route can only be used in the spring or fall - but you can wear his bike in some places, but you have to look first if you get it through fallen trees at all. No tour that you do with children - who wants to drive the route consistently requires very good S3 knowledge. For all others I can only recommend on the sometimes very narrow paths and stairs on the steep slopes to descend and push. Do not be surprised about the route - Komoot sometimes does not know these routes, especially in the area between Bendorf and Isenburg! Many good restorations along the route - Belmonte in Bendorf, Sayner barn, Zur Isenburg or the Brexx in Grenzau. But also many attractions: Butterfly Park, Zoo Neuwied, Sayner hut, Isenburg, Burg Grenzau.

Mystical place that cannot be denied a certain spirituality. Definitely worth seeing. Please treat the place with the necessary respect. It is a pilgrimage chapel. A dreamlike single trail is integrated into the ambience, starting at the ruin itself. At the top, still somewhat technically blocked, the path develops into a flow trail and flushes you out on the main street in Isenburg. The trail has a treacherous dip through a fallen tree. Is otherwise currently grds. Passable without obstacles.

beautiful ruin in the middle of the forest

The Hausenborn pilgrimage chapel is a church ruin, about one kilometer as the crow flies southwest of Isenburg in the forest. For centuries it has been visited by pilgrims from the Westerwald as well as from the Rhine and by hikers. The foundation can be assumed in the middle of the 15th century. The name Hausenborn possibly originated from "Haus am Born", referring to a water source in the immediate vicinity.de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallfahrtskapelle_Hausenborn
