Taunus.Die Höhe

Der Taunus bietet mit seinen dichten Wäldern und seinem Höhenzug mit den drei weithin sichtbaren Gipfeln ein überaus abwechslungsreiches Wanderangebot mit spannenden Landschaftspanoramen. Immer wieder begegnet man hier den Spuren von vergangenen Kulturen: Ob Kelten, Römer oder Könige und Kaiser – auf Wanderungen durch diesen Teil des rheinischen Schiefergebirges gibt es allerhand zu entdecken.

Auch zum Radfahren ist der Taunus bestens geeignet. Hier ist das Fahrrad Fortbewegungsmittel und Sportgerät zugleich, es gibt zahlreiche Angebote für Genussradler, Mountainbiker und Rennradfahrer.

Und das Beste:
Durch die Nähe zu den großen Städten der Rhein-Main-Region verfügt das Mittelgebirge über eine hervorragende Verkehrsanbindung, wobei viele Rad- und Wanderangebote gut mit Bus und Bahn erreichbar sind.

This circular hiking trail combines cozy half-timbered charm with beautiful forest paths and romantic resting places by the water. You will mostly hike through the dense forest around Usingen and only have a few meters of altitude to overcome – but all the more hiking enjoyment awaits you.

This ten kilometer long hiking trail leads you from the deep Dornbachtal to the high plateau on the White Stone - similar to the flight of swallows, which soar through the air. You hike on partly narrow paths, over the mystical Wolfsgraben and through the varied forests of the Rhein-Taunus Nature Park

This twelve-kilometer hike around Bad Nauheim is spiced with a lot of history. The various stages of salt production are explained to you on the way - from the source to the salt factory. The route is extremely varied and, thanks to the flat route, also ideal for children.



The hike starts at Gradierbau
