View over Bad Sooden Allendorf. The Meissner can be seen in the background, the Ahrenberg with the hotel on the left and the wooden tower on the former border even further to the left.

Kolonnenweg Trail

Highlight • Trail

If you hike the P 16 from the Altenstein ruins down to Asbach-Sickenberg, you will inevitably reach the descent on the Kolonnenweg. Not exactly a pleasant walk, but a historically significant path to hike here.

The fate of the communities of Asbach, Weidenbach, Henningerode, Vatterode and Sickenberg is also documented here; these places and their inhabitants fell victim to a local territorial exchange between the Americans and the Soviets in September 1945.

A great idea 👍😊 from the Schifflersgrund border museum. The beautiful area, the path, the hiking guide with his knowledge and the history itself offer a lot that quickly gets you talking. A successful thing! Only the currently slippery part of the path P 16 was difficult in places - but doable (km 2.5 to km 2.9)
