June 7, 2026,Extratour Eschenburgpfad

Beautiful "Extratour" in the LDB. We went around Nanzenbach with beautiful views... and incidentally, our people bought the 2nd (very used) e-bike as a prelude to the upcoming birthday for the "female faction". She had to try it out first!
At least this way the two-legged ones won't constantly wear out their feet!!! Hopefully, they won't wear out their tires …

Today we were out in the Lahn-Dill-Bergland Nature Park and hiked the Eschenburgpfad 🎒🥾. The start and finish 🏁 was the parking lot 🅿️ at the cemetery ✝️ in Nanzenbach. The hike begins with a steep climb ↗️ of a good 80m in the first half kilometer. After that it's still uphill, but not as steep. After about 2.5km you …

Today we were on the Eschenburg path in the best hiking weather. ☀️
The tour is very beautiful, but it's a bit sad that the beautiful Eschenburg tower was never rebuilt.
For anyone who isn't so good on their feet, I would choose a different start and finish point, as the climb at the beginning is not easy in the …

Viewpoints are always worthwhile destinations for hikers. For this reason, the Eschenburg (589m) has long enjoyed great popularity as the highest elevation in the lower Dietzholz valley. A Hessen extra tour is dedicated to this topic and heads from the Dillenburg district of Nanzenbach to the Eschenburg with a return journey through the beautiful Nanzenbach valley.

December 18, 2022,LDB - Extratour : Eschenburgpfad

One or the other waymarking would have to be renewed, otherwise a small fine round.
Many benches along the route invite you to linger, but today it was too cold for that.
A good start would also be at the hiking car park - "Eiershausen".

The meadows and pastures around Nanzenbach offer hikers wonderful views. Remains and traces along the way tell of the once rich history of mining. The extra tour owes its name to the 589 meter high mountain, which was the inspiration for the founding of the neighboring municipality of Eschenburg in 1971.
