Lahnwanderweg

From the source of the Lahn along quiet trails to the Rhine.

The Lahnwanderweg leads through the diverse Lahn Valley, from its source in the Rothaar Mountains to its confluence with the Rhine near Niederlahnstein, along varied paths with many lovely viewpoints, offering peace and nature on stretches of secluded, unspoilt trail.

Plenty of countryside, but also picturesque towns and cities with their own special character, invite you on this journey of discovery.

The Lahnwanderweg is distinguished by stages that are as varied as they are idyllic, and also takes you through vineyards along the Lahn – a small but excellent wine-growing region.

A highly recommended and tranquil point-to-point walk, with hotel changes and luggage transfer.

Lahnwanderweg total approx. 300 km.
