    Hiking

    The Adolf oak, standing freely on the hill outside the village, was planted in 1864 in honor of Adolf I, the Duke of Nassau and later Grand Duke of Luxembourg. From this height there is a wide view of the Rhine valley and the surrounding Rhine heights. (Source: Wikipedia)

    When the weather is clear, you have a beautiful view of the Rhine Valley, the Taunus and the Hunsrück Mountains from the front, and you can count 14 villages in the round.
