We stopped here at the end of the hike with a group. The price-performance ratio was very good. The service was fast and friendly, and the food was very tasty and plentiful. This place is therefore recommended.

The Dörsbachtal is more of a hiking valley and is only recommended for mountain biking to a limited extent because there are many carrying sections and you need thorn protection at the bottom.

The wide stone border along the bank is evidence of the old bathing area that once existed here. The entrance to the Lahn is very shallow at this point, almost halfway down the river. The channel for recreational boaters is located near the other bank. Swimming is still possible here today.
