October 13, 2025,Mädelsmontag🎒🥾🚶‍♀️🚶🏼‍♀️Bad Soden und Kronberg mit Turm 👍

Manu had a lovely tour in the Taunus Mountains ready for us today.
Parked at the sports facilities in Neuenhain, we first headed towards Bad Soden, passing the many springs there. We went through the town and then on to Kronberg...a very beautiful old town center and a castle, which is unfortunately closed on Mondays.
After a coffee, we headed …

October 13, 2025,🚶🏼‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️📷📷 MONTAGSMÄDELS...BAD SODEN-KRONBERG RUNDE 👁👁👁

Today we went to the Taunus. We parked at the sports complex in Neuenhain and first went for a walk to Bad Soden with its many healing springs, but otherwise, it's not really necessary to visit. Kronberg was much nicer, with lots of half-timbered houses, very well-kept, lots of alleyways, and a castle, which we could only see from the …

October 26, 2024,Kronberger Spaziergang (S-Kronberg/Taunus - S-Kronberg/Taunus)

Tour 11 from the Rother hiking guide "Around Frankfurt".
Today I headed towards Frankfurt, as the concert by the Belgian EBM group Front 242 was scheduled for this evening in the Langen town hall.
Nice little tour, although I found the Hardtberg tower the most exciting. The concert in the evening was really good too.

May 5, 2024,🇩🇪 Taunus: Kronberg - Durch die Altstadt, Quellenpark Kronthal und Hardtbergturm

Komoot had originally planned the tour through the Opel Zoo. This is possible as there are entrances and exits on both sides, but you have to plan extra time and the entrance fees. I think the Opel Zoo is more for children.

October 20, 2024,Eichentor - Altes Stadttor – Neuer Hardtbergturm Runde von Kronberg

A beautiful route partly through Kronberg, but mostly through the local forests.
Mostly on paved paths. Basic fitness is required, but the route should be doable for everyone at any time of year.
