Hiking

Limes refers to Roman border fortifications. This Limes, with its impressive length of 550 kilometers, is one of Central Europe's largest archaeological monuments.

The 245-kilometer-long Limes hiking trail shows you some sections of the former Roman border wall.

Hiking

Hessian television (Hessischer Rundfunk) offers in a small TV series titled »Wonders of the World in Hesse« a worthwhile documentary for viewers interested in culture and history about very special sites in the federal state. One episode deals with the LIMES. The website about it states: “The Upper Germanic-Rhaetian Limes is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a tourist highlight. The approximately 150 km long Hessian section runs from Grebenroth via Saalburg to Seligenstadt am Main. Here history can be experienced as an adventure.”
