The tranquil river Lahn and the idyllic Lahn valley are the ideal place for a leisurely tour of the countryside, either by bike or by boat. Explore the magnificent scenery and the romantic little towns nestling along the banks of the river. In the autumn, the lush vineyard slopes are an impressive sight to behold.Boat trips on the Lahn
With babbling water, gently lapping waves, unspoilt nature and romantic towns, a boat trip on the Lahn is always a memorable experience. The stretch of river that runs through Diez en route from Limburg to Balduinstein, passing through four locks along the way, is particularly beautiful. The Lahn continues on its winding path through the Nassau Nature Reserve, past a number of historical attractions.Lahn valley
The banks of the river Lahn are lined with picturesque half-timbered villages, sweeping riverbank meadows and cosy inns. A number of majestic castles, palaces, beautiful churches, abbeys and cathedrals also stand as reminders of past ages. The tranquil Lahn has always been a firm favourite with the canoeing fraternity. The Lahn Valley cycle trail also runs along the full length of the river. Scenic highlights along the way include the twists and turns in the river between Weilburg and Runkel, and between Diez and Lahnstein.
