October 3, 2022,Limes Erlebnispfad – Herzberg Runde von Dornholzhausen

Very nice circular route in the Taunus, suitable for families! First it goes over beautiful forest paths to the Saalburg and then to the Herzberg tower, where you can also stop for a bite to eat. After that it goes very steeply downhill!

July 10, 2022,Limes Erlebnispfad – Herzbergturm Runde von Dornholzhausen

Relaxed round with a stop at the Gasthof Herzberg. There were a few elongated forest highways, but mostly small paths. Great foresight from the Herzberg and the Limes adventure trail is always nice.
