Historical BackgroundThe Old Territorial Border: The trail makes visible an old territorial border that ran through the landscape between 1600 and 1816. It separated the territory of the Principality of Isenburg (Ysenburg) from the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt.Route: The historical border line extends from the southern edge of the Frankfurt City Forest at the so-called Gehspitz, across the Mitteldicker Wald, past present-day Dreieich-Buchschlag, through the Langener Mühltal, to Koberstadt in the Haag near Dreieichenhain.Special Features and Sights Along the TrailHistorical Boundary Stones: Along the trail, hikers pass numerous well-preserved historical boundary stones. Particularly striking are twelve large boundary stones set in 1783, as well as artful coat-of-arms stones on the border with Koberstadt, Hanau.Medieval Landwehr: A section is dedicated to the historical Dreieich Ring Landwehr at Buch-Schlag. Near Hainer Trift, a part of this medieval rampart, including its boundary ditch and a symbolic wooden barrier, has been reconstructed.Nature and Water Bodies: The trail connects dense forest areas with scenic highlights.

In autumn you can find fresh, seasonal mushrooms here. However, there are also large, carved wooden mushrooms along the path, which are perennials.
