    The Aar rises here at an altitude of 429 meters in the Hessian part of the Taunus. It is a 49.7 kilometer long tributary of the Lahn.

        The saying "everything has to start small" also applies here. At almost 50 km, the Aar is not particularly long. But here is the beginning of the river that flows into the Lahn near Diez. The water from the Aar finally reaches the North Sea via the Rhine.
