The reason for this vegetation-free rubble heap is interesting and revealing:
Lead and silver, among other things, were mined here. The waste is not beneficial to most plants due to the heavy metal contamination.

Powder Tower Obernhof

Highlight • Monument

The powder tower is a nice change of pace and reminds of the quarry work that used to take place here.

Adelhahn Via Ferrata

Highlight • Climb

Everything is easily doable if you can also manage to get the ladder up to the attic at home.. However, you should wear suitable shoes and not be afraid

Lahnwanderweg Difficult Section

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

What fun it is to do the difficult version on narrow stone paths. Absolutely recommended, as well as good shoes, surefootedness and possibly gloves, which make it much easier to grip an older steel cable.

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Even if it was uphill, the way to the Goethe point was always as beautiful as the view up there.

Goethe Point

Highlight • Viewpoint

It is precisely here that Goethe, fleeing from an unhappy love, is said to have said: “Beautiful to die for!” Standing up here, you can only agree! Be careful, now …
