Stone bridge over the Lahn at Kernbach

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful old bridge. The Lahn is very low here, making it a popular spot for children. There's also a lovely rest area.

Super nice bike ride with @Gerhard 🥾🎒🚴‍♂️🍁 from Unterrosphe to Buchenau /Carlshütte in beautiful sunshine 🌞🌞. As a reward, there was a large 🍨 ice cream sundae at the end in Sterzhausen 😁 . Unfortunately, I'm missing about 5 km that weren't recorded.

What's going on with you, next to the famous Lahn cycle path?
Small quaint villages and cozy spots by the river that cannot be seen from the bike path. Turn somewhere and it's even more beautiful than before. The nice and wide spot can only be seen from the hiking trail.
