Beautiful spot on earth, very quiet (when the Königsteiner Bahn train isn't passing by). Worth adding to the tour.

A beautiful trail! Uphill due to partly larger stones and roots, it is challenging because of the gradient. Additionally, a few sections seem to have been newly covered with gravel, which is why it is still quite loose. Downhill, for me, it's a much nicer route than going over the road - but a road bike would also be torn apart here.

The wayside shrine on the historic Mainzer Straße can be dated to 1515 due to extensive conservation work in 1982. The chiseled signs are interpreted as "SJ". In the arched niche of the so-called "Nischenbildstock" (niche shrine), a hole suggests a former holder for a devotional image. According to legend, a farmer died with his animals during a severe storm. Because he mistreated his animals and disregarded the weather, the memorial stone was erected as a warning. The original location of the shrine, completely carved from a sandstone block, was about 50 meters further west. The Mainzer Straße once led from Mainz to Erfurt. Its historical profile as a hollow way no longer exists.
