From here you have an excellent view of the train station, the town of Balduinstein, the inconspicuous castle ruins and the Schaumburg castle on top of the mountain.

New, light bridges have made this section between Geilnau and Laurenburg possible. The existing paths on the left bank of the Lahn were used and slightly expanded. The route has turned out to be beautiful.

The castle towers over the city. The climb is not easy as the road surface is bad, but the descent is fun
