    Hiking

    Diez Castle is impressive and unusually different. Be sure to also take a look at the old town around it.

    Hiking

    The high medieval castle Grafenschloss Diez perched on a porphyry rock just above the old town of Diez. The place and the castle lie above the mouth of the Aar in the Lahn at a ford, which was used by several old roads.
    Since 24 June 2006, the castle is reopened as a youth hostel of the German Youth Hostel Association (DJH) in its regional association Rhineland-Palatinate / Saarland. The youth hostel covers 3,100 square meters and has 129 beds. [1]
