イトシュタインのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

しばらくぶりに今日、再びWaldglaswegを歩き、多くの情報パネルやガラスの要素が欠けていることに気づきました。

Here you will find a beautiful glass bench by Ines Nickchen, which is part of the Forest Glass Trail.

Historic boundary stones along the Limes in Nassau-Hesse, often part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, mark not only the ancient Roman border, but also later historical border demarcations (e.g., between the County of Nassau and the Archbishopric of Mainz) that were based on the Limes; they are well preserved and visible along the way, such as the one in the Kröftel area, which shows the Mainz Wheel (Roman side) and the Nassau Lion (Germanic side), and offer impressive insights into the history of the Limes, often accessible via hiking trails such as the Limes Circular Trail.

Idstein's old town is always worth a visit.

Beautifully crafted bronze sculptures

Free and available anytime – that's the new tourist offering from the university town of Idstein, entitled "Idsteiner Geschwätz" (Idstein Gossip). Behind it lies not only an innovative concept, but also numerous stories about Idstein's history – interesting for tourists as well as locals. QR codes embedded in cobblestones at seven different locations throughout the town bring a variety of characters to life – provided visitors have a mobile phone that can scan the codes. Hessian Radio (hr) presenter Marion Kuchenny and her colleague Bastian Korff lend their voices to these Idstein characters. In Rodergasse, "Harry von der Gass" and the two tanners by the fountain tell stories about their lives.

Very idyllically situated - but snowed in today
