Wooden Bridge over the Dörsbach

Highlight • Bridge

A dilapidated wooden bridge across the stream. Watch where you go / drive long! Then it's very steep up to the Jammertal Trail.

Nice climb, unfortunately on asphalt. From there you can either go through the Dörsbachtal to Singhofen or just get there. The monastery is also worth a short stay. Especially in summer it is worth visiting the cool walls.

Man, what a trek from Idstein... I really had doubts as to whether the whole thing and the long descent would be worth it today. I want to check out the trails in Nassau again....
