Schneid-Wühle Circular Trail

Highlight • Trail

Here you can run a nice round through the Salzbödetal to Oberwalgern and back over the Hahnenkopf. Little activity during the week, but also no possibility to stop off in the two mills.

Weir of the Salzböde

Highlight • Structure

The stream is currently carrying a lot more water, which is why it rushes down the weir so beautifully. You can also go right up to the weir at this point and look at everything up close.

Weir on the Salzböde

Highlight • Structure

There are many small dams and waterfalls on the Salzböde. Sometimes you have to walk a few meters from the bike path over a small path, but the short break is always worth it.

April 17, 2026,Schmelzmühle – Wehr der Salzböde Runde von Fronhausen

On my spring tour through Mittelhessen, I'm stopping in Fronhausen today and from there I'm walking along the Lahnwanderweg to the dreamily located Salzböden. It never gets boring hiking-wise in this region.
