This tour is really beautiful. However, it is only recommended in winter and spring. Some of the paths were completely washed out and full of blackberries, thistles and nettles, wow! 😃

From Aumenau you always keep along the Lahn and hike through a beautiful piece of nature with rocks along the way and many views of the Lahn. Before the lock Fürfurt it goes uphill again and then down to the lock. Here you can observe how such a lock works and watch paddlers cranking... they will certainly be happy about …

For a long time I have once again chosen the lower path to Falkenbach and was pleased to find that it is passable again. Last time the descent down to the lock was totally rutted due to forestry work.
Nevertheless: you need solid shoes!
