Tips

  • Uwe Schmeling

    All paths to the Koppe are steep and strenuous, but every meter of altitude is rewarded with a magnificent view.

  • From the Koppeturm you have an extremely wide panoramic view - including to the Kellerwald (Hohes Lohr), the Vogelsberg (Taufstein) and the Taunus (Feldberg).

  • On 02.08.2020 we ran the Lahn-Dill extra tour "Postraubroute" from the hiking portal Mornshausen, the highlight of which should be the Koppe tower. After a long climb we reached the tower and then found that it could not be climbed. "Temporarily closed due to risk of accident." - Neither on the Internet nor on the hiking portal any reference to this blocking. Other hikers said they came only because of the tower - annoying!

  • Easy to reach by bike or on foot.

    When the weather is nice you have a great view of the Marburger Hinteland and the Scheldt forest.

    A shelter is available in bad weather.

  • Super quiet hiking trails. Very relaxing if you want to switch off.

  • If you have a head for heights, you should definitely climb the 16 m high Koppe Tower if you haven't already been to the top. From here you have a 360° panoramic view of the south-eastern part of the hinterland, as this remote corner of the former Grand Duchy of Hesse is still called today. Everywhere you look you can see forest and mountains. The observation tower can be reached via the Lahn-Dill-Bergland-Path as well as via the Salzböderadweg.

  • I like towers like this: Even in less than ideal weather with humidity, wind, a swaying tower and then again sunspots flowing over the landscape - just great. In fact, we see the Rimberg Tower near Caldern, the Marburg Castle, Gleiberg Castle, Vetzberg Castle and, standing in the way, the Dünsberg up to Bad Endbach the Wade Tower. Hiked everything. Then there is a hiking book to enter. This is how it should be on a tower! Tip: take binoculars and time with you!

  • The way to the tower is great for hiking or cycling. From Erdhausen on the Lahn Dill Bergweg was also manageable for the 3 year old daughter.
