View of the Lahn-Dill mountains

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view from here goes far into the Lahn-Dill-Bergland, also the Dünsberg near Gießen is easy to see.

Where the Westerwald-Querbahn railway line once ran, there is now this beautiful and easy-to-ride cycle path. On some sections, there are great views over the varied landscape of the Westerwald.

Rail Trail in Naturpark Lahn-Dill-Bergland

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

With a break in Driedorf you can drive along the former railway line to Rennerod with a minimal gradient.
It's best to go uphill in an easterly wind, then you'll be pushed up the mountain.
