    Historic halter trail!

    In the 19th century, horses pulled ships from Lahnstein on the left bank of the Lahn upstream along the towpath. Since the ships didn't need horses to travel downstream due to the current, the Halfteren (horsemen) guided them back down the river by the shortest land route.

    The Halfterweg is 18 km long and runs from Diez to Obernhof. It is also suitable for cycling (according to the sign).
