Arnstein Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

Nice climb, unfortunately on asphalt. From there you can either go through the Dörsbachtal to Singhofen or just get there. The monastery is also worth a short stay. Especially in summer it is worth visiting the cool walls.

the path to the High-Lay or from the High-Lay away is a really great experience with beautiful views. Please pay attention to Wanderer in the confusing curves.

Powder Tower Obernhof

Highlight • Monument

The powder tower is a nice change of pace and reminds of the quarry work that used to take place here.

July 7, 2021,Runde von Obernhof nach Nassau und zurück über Weinähr mit herrlichen Aussichtspunkten

A wonderful hike begins at the Arnstein Monastery. There are a few parking spaces here. The first part of the route goes on a paved path to Nassau. Then it goes over the bridge to the other side of Nassau. Then it goes steadily uphill on the Lahn hiking trail. Several beautiful viewpoints, especially the Hohelei, reward the easy effort. …

August 7, 2022,Rundwanderung Lahn - Nassau - Obernhof - Kloster Arnstein

I changed the direction of the tour in order to get the less exciting part of the tarred Lahn cycle path to Obernhof behind me at the beginning and also to walk in the midday heat in the shade of the forest. This requires a visit to Nassau Castle at the beginning of the tour, which, however, only opens at …

July 30, 2022,Lahnwanderweg 🥾🥾 "Nassau ➡️ Obernhof"

Another beautiful 🥾🥾 round on the Lahn. Outbound from Nassau to Obernhof via the Lahnwanderweg and back on the other side of the Lahn, with a frappé break ☕️ in the Arnstein monastery. But what am I talking about, there are pictures. 😍😎
