The Upper Town (Old Town) really has a large number of historically beautiful half-timbered houses to offer. Even if you leave the main path you will find beautiful half-timbered houses in the sometimes very narrow streets.

Marburg Old Town (Upper Town)

Highlight • Historical Site

The numerous winding streets of the old-fashioned upper town allow you to discover something new again and again. If you really want to explore everything, you should plan several days.

In the so-called "Holy Ground" is also the Ockershausen apple trail, a unique place with information to touch and experience. Over 100 different types of apple are presented here. By dispensing with fertilizers and pesticides, a special meadow vegetation was created as well as an important habitat for various endangered animals and plants.

Nice hike starting in Marburg. The rest of the way then with a few small inclines, mostly on dirt roads or the forest.

We finish today's stage a little earlier to shorten the length a bit. We'll run that in the 8th stage. ..

For the third time this year on the Lahn hiking trail, although the Lahn can only be seen at the very end in Marburg. The stage itself doesn't have many highlights, it's mostly unspectacular but also very easy, through fields and forests. The sunflowers made up for it today!
