Lahn riverbank near Nievern

Highlight • River

The same applies here as for all other German river cycle paths: avoid the weekend and public holidays. On weekdays, the then less frequented Lahn valley path and the banks of the Lahn are just pure enjoyment!

Lahn river mouth

Highlight • River

There used to be commercial ship traffic on the Lahn too. Today the Lahn is just a wonderful river for canoeers and sports boaters. 🛥

A little bit along the Lahn in beautiful sunshine. Enjoyed a relaxing bike ride with cake in Bad Ems.

...if you're broken, you're broken. 😔 and so I didn't have a clear view of the route. Anyway, because of the weather, I went outside again. 😎✌️

On Wednesday, it's time to say goodbye to Ems. 😏

May 29, 2025,Tour Lahnstein 🚵‍♂️💪29052025

So, for Tom, I forgot my e-bike charger and it's at home... I still have enough power for 52 km in ECO mode. That's definitely enough to Lahnstein and back. But tomorrow is another day. So I cycled to Lahnstein and back without the motor 💪💪. It's also a good bike ride. All flat 😎. Then I have all options …
