Arnstein Monastery

Nice climb, unfortunately on asphalt. From there you can either go through the Dörsbachtal to Singhofen or just get there. The monastery is also worth a short stay. Especially in summer it is worth visiting the cool walls.

Jammertal am Dörsbach

Highlight • Gorge

Beautiful valley with the Dörsbach, very idyllic, fantastically beautiful small hiking trail, always close to the river. The lush greenery (in summer) is unexpected and intoxicating.

I find this part of the Dörsbach most beautiful. The clear water is dammed and clear. Large boulders lie in and at the water's edge.

June 22, 2025,Hitzetour durch schattig-schöne Jammertal
It was warm today, so I needed something deep down in the valley with plenty of shade. 😉 I was deep down, and it was shady, but not necessarily cooler. 😂 The Jammertal valley, however, is always worth a visit. It's very pretty along the paths, or like today through the Dörsbach stream. With almost 35 degrees Celsius, a short …

A shortened version of a great hike in the Jammertal valley. Especially the narrow, almost barely visible ascents and descents in the first half.
Hiking boots with tread and surefootedness are a plus, as my companion, my daughter, can confirm, as she had to sit down several times due to gravity. 😛

Today at 30 degrees and fairly humid a hike on the Lahn. Route Idea is from Mr. Paths, we took a shortcut in the last third and continued along the stream and then up to the Arnstein monastery. Considering the temperatures, that was a good decision. The route is also demanding and there is no bridge when crossing the stream, …

A beautiful tour, sweaty at times, but truly worthwhile!

Exactly what I was looking for, and cooling off at the small waterfalls was so good in these temperatures.

...like 99% of all of Mr. Pfade's tour tips, I highly recommend it, and this tour won't be the last time I do it! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

A very relaxing hiking trail, only signposted on the left side as the Dörsbach-Mühlenwanderweg. The trail on the right is wilder and more pristine, full of hidden surprises and variations. It was a Sunday afternoon, and there was only one other hiker besides us along the trail. It was lonely and ravined.🦚

Another really cool tour 👍🥾. Just wonderful from the start. Once again extremely varied and entertaining. Alpine feeling, ridge-like passages, great views again and again.
The second half had a bit more of the "jungle".
The vegetation here is a bit wilder and you need to be in good physical shape. Here and there you have to overcome fallen trees …

Another tour for the adventurous, with lots of ascents and descents on narrow paths, especially the first half to Neubäckersmühle and the last third. Quite a few of them are more suited to hoofed animals like chamois. 😆
But today I had a hiking stick with me, and that was a good thing.
Right at the beginning, it was a …

The tour was really nice, but there were some difficult passages that had to be mastered.
Partly a bit pathless and some fallen trees blocking the path.
The altitude information is also not entirely correct, it was around 600.
