Unfortunately, the part of the Lahn cycle path completed today cannot be described as very attractive. 😉
Unfortunately, you have the feeling that it is the B49 bike path and the little river. Lahn is often far away, at least on this section.
The following section tomorrow towards Limberg promises a lot more here 👍👍.

So today a nice bike ride 🚴 to the Merenberg castle ruins 🤘

In itself a nice route, it's just stupid that I got lost again in the forest (4 times 😅😅😅)
But thanks to the friendly locals 😅 who showed me the right way, I finally reached my goal 😅😉🤘
