View of Amöneburg and surrounding fields

Highlight • Viewpoint

A wonderful place to find some peace and quiet. You sit in the shade of a canopy of leaves and have a great view of Amöneburg and the hill.

Ancient Linden Tree and Historic Sheep Trough

Highlight • Natural Monument

An ancient gigantic linden tree and an absolute rarity in this country. The trunk is enormously thick and so knotted and overgrown that it almost has something surreal about it. …

Felsenmeer rock formations

Highlight • Natural Monument

The sea of rocks that gives the geotour its name. An impressive sight at any time of year. There is a welcome place to rest on the edge of the “sea”.

After work round. Shortly abbreviated because of the weather.
Definitely worth seeing. Geological highlights (sometimes reminiscent of the large Felsenmeer in the Odenwald). Shortly before the end a pond with crested newts was discovered.
Since I'm lazy, here's a link to the official tour.

Beautiful and very special. At the end, not a thread was dry, there was water in my shoes, but it didn't take away from the magic of the tour. I'll definitely do it again, although the view was limited this time due to the weather. 🤩🐾

For a long time we had difficulty editing the tours we had done on Komoot, so there are still some "unpublished" ones that were beautiful.
This is the 2nd attempt at the geo trail near Homberg/Ohm. The first time it rained so heavily from the basalt quarry onwards that by the end there was not a thread left dry and …

Beautiful & educational tour on the volcano. Sure-footedness required here and there but still suitable for children.

A nice round with some highlights and views.
There are enough parking spaces at the starting point, there are no restaurants along the way, but there are many rest areas.

Crisp cold and the occasional ray of sunshine, the perfect weather for a hike in November!

We really enjoyed the tour because there were many different landscapes along the way: forest, cherry avenue, plateau with meadows and fields, a view of the largest basalt quarry in Europe, the sea of rocks, mighty ancient trees and a distant view from a …
