Very nice bridge with a great view of the castle.
!! Attention when driving over !! The white lines mark an edge that is easily overlooked in backlight or dusk. As a cyclist, you can quickly stumble here (own experience).

Lahnradweg Pedestrian Bridge Near Laurenburg

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

This bridge was built specifically for outdoor athletes in the nature reserve.
The detour at the time was a 3 km uphill climb to Holzappel
so that the Lahn could continue towards Nassau.

July 19, 2023,Fahrradtour Laurenburg - Diez - Limburg 19.07.2023

Since we were supposed to go to Limburg today, we drove to Laurenburg by car. You can park on the main street at the marked spots.
Note: The parking lot that "Google" shows at the entrance to the village is NOT public.
The total distance between Laurenburg and Limburg is approx. 54 km (there and back).
(Because I didn't restart …

A beautiful route along the Lahn. Two new bicycle bridges have been built between Geilnau and Laurenburg. I can highly recommend the route.

Since the Lahn is no longer flooded, we cycled to the new Lahn bridges today. My wife wanted to go there too. On the way there was a short rest in the new Lahncafe on the shore in Balduinstein.

Today in dry weather we cycled over the Diez quarry lake, which is currently blood red again, to the two new bicycle bridges. From there on via Laurenburg to the Schaumburg. Continue to Birlenbach, Holzheim and back to Limburg.
For the first time in 5 months again over 50.

An absolute highlight in terms of landscape. If you are coming by car, you should drive to the school square in Limburg Staffel. This saves you the first piece of country road. In Balduinenstein you can enjoy a snack at the jetty or in one of the cafés in Diez. Otherwise on the route a lot of nature along the …

October 23, 2023,Indian Summer auf dem Lahnradweg

The Lahn has its charms, especially in autumn from Limburg towards Bad Ems. Due to the narrow river passages and the Lahn slopes, which are predominantly covered with deciduous trees, you feel like you are in Indian summer. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to fully enjoy it.

From km 21.6 you have to partially push the bike to avoid getting caught in the nettle.
