3D model of the Roman fort Alteburg-Arnsburg

Highlight • Monument

A Roman fort was once located here. The association has set up a very clear 3D model here. If you think of this picture on the existing site, you can get a good idea of the size of the settlement.

View of Münzenberg Castle and Wetterau

Highlight • Viewpoint

Only a few meters further up on the mountain, at the megalithic grave "Heiliger Stein", the view is even more impressive! There you also have a great view of the Vogelsberg with the Hoherodskopf

This tour is always beautiful. There is a lot to see, lots of information and buildings from centuries past and beautiful views. The tour is available in three different lengths, depending on how much you want to walk. 😎

November 4, 2025,Vom Kloster zum Megalithgrab

Fast scheint es, als wolle die Klostermauer als Zeitstrahl dienen, denn ihr folgt der kulturhistorische Wanderweg zunächst durch den Klosterwald Arnsburg auf eine Reise in verschiedenste Epochen der Vergangenheit. Wo die Klostermauer endet bzw. nach Osten weiterführt, gibt die Wetter weiter die Richtung vor. Rechts des Weges ragt immer höher eine Art Wall im Wald auf, verdunkelt – selbst heute …

Today there isn't unlimited time for hiking due to an appointment 🥾, so a short, but very interesting and educational route in the vicinity was chosen. We were out with the usual group of four 🐶 and chose the longest variant (for the tireless) out of the 4 possible rounds. We learned and saw a lot along the way, from …

On the hiking trail you walk through several thousand years of history of various orientations. Our two hiking guides Gabriele and Clemens were perfectly prepared and were rewarded with 27 hikers and the best hiking weather. A top hike through one of the most beautiful natural spots in Hesse! 🥾☀️☀️☀️☀️🍀👍

Here is the rest of the hike. Wow, that was boring. Anyone who likes to walk along endless dirt roads, read information boards and has the imagination to imagine the things described is in good hands here. It's not mine. By the way, we saw some cyclists on our way. Not a bad idea at all.

I was out and about from 1:25 p.m. to 5:05 p.m. That's 3 hours 40 with 2 breaks and photo stops. The same route on another day took about 3 hours. That's the realistic time here too.
