A wonderful hike with great views and a wonderful landscape. This tour owes its name to the inhabitants of Eibach, who, according to history, received land holdings that were not theirs.

A historical form of pastoralism can be seen in the Kanzelstein nature reserve. On the way there are orchards,…

The Kuckucksweg is another of the grandiose extra tours in the Lahn-Dill-Bergland. Once you have climbed out of Eibach, the path leads over high meadows, partly also high heathland, sometimes through light-flooded deciduous forests, sometimes through dark coniferous forests even in bright sunshine. And again and again there are these wonderful panoramic views over the countless hilltops. A real pleasure …

Today I walked the Cuckoo Trail in 22°C sunshine.
I think it's smoother, easier, and more enjoyable walking the right way.

We didn't see or hear a "cuckoo". Nevertheless, the tour was quite nice, with many out and distant views.
Like all Lahn-Dill mountain tours so far, excellent trail markings and easily walkable trails/paths, although today (due to yesterday's rain) it was a bit damp.
Recommended for tracking.

Walked the Cuckoo Trail again in perfect hiking weather (15°-18°) and light clouds.
Fox, hare and deer were too fast for the camera.

A nice walk in the LDB... everyone stretched their paws, and at the same time, we broke in and tested our new hiking boots!
Fiete and I don't need anything like that... but I have to say: if you chase a two-legged creature like that, they'll have much more grip in the turns... 😀
..........And they won't fly off 😁
