Very nice bridge with a great view of the castle.
!! Attention when driving over !! The white lines mark an edge that is easily overlooked in backlight or dusk. As a cyclist, you can quickly stumble here (own experience).

Old Lahn Bridge, Limburg

Highlight • Bridge

The stop par excellence for every tourist. Wonderful view of the cathedral. The tower, which can be driven under by cars, is also worth admiring.

View of Limburg Cathedral

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice view from the Lahn to the Limburg Cathedral. Be sure to visit the city center with its many half-timbered houses. The squares in the historic city center with the many cafés invite you to linger. Absolutely worth seeing!

View of St. Lubentius Church

Highlight • Viewpoint

She shows up imposingly on the bike path in front of you. Looks like it was carved out of the stone.

Beautiful cycle route around Limburg, most of it on cycle paths. A rest stop at the Lindenmühle is not to be missed.

August 2, 2022,Tour 57 in 2022, mal wieder ohne Ziel 🤔😄

Started again today without a goal 😏
That's when @F71's quote came to mind:
Mensfelderkopf always works 🤗
So we took the path to the Mensfelderkopf.
From there down towards Aar and via Flacht, Holzheim and Diez to Limburg to the Obermühle. After a short rest there, return home via the R8.
On the way we had to count the …

Finally sun and blue sky again today, what could be more obvious than to go on a tour again. Where should the journey go?
After the heavy rain of the last few days,

Via Mensfelden, of course with a detour to the Mensfelderkopf, to the Aar to …

January 6, 2022,1. Tour in 2022 😀

At the invitation of a former schoolmate from Dauborn, drove the first tour in 2022.
Comfortable round trip via Dauborn, Nauheim, Mensfelden, Flacht, Diez, Limburg and back via the R8. The weather was cool, but now and then the sun peeked out from behind the clouds. The journey should mainly be on fixed paths, but unfortunately it was not always …
