Lahn Bridge, Villmar

The marble bridge in Villmar, Hesse is actually a limestone bridge over the Lahn. The bridge is primarily of local importance, but less of a national one. Nevertheless, it is …

Cycling here in the Lahn Valley when the weather is nice is always a great pleasure! The fact that there is no road in this section of the valley is an invaluable advantage!

Kirschhofen Double Weir

Highlight • River

When the water is low, this rapids are often used for a stopover: for refreshment or just to watch the hustle and bustle on the, here, wide Lahn.

Beautiful, old arch bridge over the Lahn, from which you have a great view of the castle and Runkel. Right next door there is an ice cream parlor, where you can eat a delicious ice cream.

View of Limburg Cathedral

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice view from the Lahn to the Limburg Cathedral. Be sure to visit the city center with its many half-timbered houses. The squares in the historic city center with the many cafés invite you to linger. Absolutely worth seeing!

View of Ardeck Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

The castle in the Aartal, directly above the Aarradweg in Holzheim, is a castle ruin, but still beautiful to look at. You can enter the courtyard at any time and enjoy the view of the Aartal.

April 29, 2026,Lahn-Radweg 4. Tag von Weilburg nach Laurenburg
This section of the route was great. 👍👍 We are totally thrilled and there was nothing to complain about the weather either 🙂. The wind was probably quite fresh. 🌬
The Lahn valley changed a few times. Sometimes it was narrow and then it widened again. 🏞 There was one downside. Near Balduinstein, the cycle path was completely closed due …

Addendum to yesterday: I went for a little walk after dinner, the Schlossberg is definitely worth a longer visit.
The night was very warm again, but luckily there is air conditioning. Today I started a little later, but I took a croissant from the breakfast buffet.
The Lahn cycle path is finally as I imagined it would be, very idyllic. …

Day 4 of our tour on the Lahn Cycle Path. Today we cycled from Weilburg via Limburg and Diez to Laurenburg. It was 65 km, about 80% of which took us directly along the Lahn River.
The day started significantly cooler than before. Yesterday's storm had caused temperatures to drop significantly. When we set off at 9:30 a.m. – after …

The plan was to cycle towards Koblenz, starting at the train station in Löhnberg. With a pleasant temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and little traffic on the cycle path, the conditions were ideal for a bike ride. Two highlights of the route are the wobbly bridge near Löhnberg and the ship tunnel in Weilburg. The path runs steadily along the …

Today's tour took us from Weilburg on the Lahn to Dietz. The cycle path along the Lahn was a narrow, mostly asphalted cycle path that was very easy to ride on. There were rarely any particular inclines.
We stopped for lunch in Vellmar because most of the restaurants were closed on Mondays. In Runkel there was a very beautiful castle …

Today's stage takes us via Limburg to Laurenburg. The weather is ideal for cycling. No rain, slightly cloudy and not too warm. Today we drive all the time along the Lahn. The route is beautiful and makes up for the last two days. We make a stopover in Runkel and visit the castle. Small and very fine, otherwise the place …

Day 2: A wonderful tour without any ifs and buts, great cycle paths, enough sights and a beautiful Lahn valley..😎😎🚲🚲

Showing Translation

Since I already knew Weilburg (worth it!), I continued on. There are about 25 km of beautiful stretches along the towpath with a view of the river. The path is very narrow in places, making it difficult to negotiate oncoming traffic. I don't mind that today, as I'm the only one on the bike path.
Runkel Castle greets you from …
