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.

Diez Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

There is no shortage of ice cream parlors and the way up to the castle is easy to walk. Nice corner, you can also sit and relax down by the old Lahn Bridge.

Old Lahn Bridge, Diez

Highlight • Bridge

Very nice bridge with a great view of the castle.
!! Attention when driving over !! The white lines mark an edge that is easily overlooked in backlight or dusk. As a cyclist, you can quickly stumble here (own experience).
