Nice driveway up here

Very nice and fun to drive here

It's just such a great feeling to ride downhill for what feels like an eternity; definitely a must on a racing bike; few cars in traffic included.

There are also good parking options here to start a tour.

The station houses a forest restaurant called "Waldgeist". Nice ambience, but I didn't go in and can't say anything about the food.

There is now a restaurant in the station building that is worth visiting. The prices are still quite good and the dishes are very large.

It's a beautiful road, but there's far too much traffic for a good drive. Especially since there are still too many combustion engines.

The former Eiserne Hand station was built at the top of the pass, where the railway line crosses the main ridge of the Taunus between the Rhine and Aar valleys. From approx. 190 meters above sea level in Wiesbaden, the route has climbed up to 420 meters here. In the opening year of 1889, this was the steepest German railway line that was not a rack railway. The Eiserne Hand station was also the highest station in the Taunus.
