July 2012

This tour began in Feudingen about 15 Kilometers from Bad Laasphe within a few kilometers of the source of the Lahn River. First, I rode 40 kilometers to a train station northwest of my home, then from there with a train 2 hours to Feudingen. From there, I followed the Lahn River eastward to Marburg, then south to Giessen, and from there west to the Rhine River - a total of 275 kilometers.

Juli 2012

Diese Radtour fing in Feudingen an, etwa about 15 Kilometer von Bad Laasphe und nur ein Paar Kilometer von der Donauquelle. Als erstes, bin ich 40 Kilometers zu einem Bahnhof nordöstlich von meinem Haus. Von dort ging es 2 Stunden mit einem Zug nach Feudingen. Von dort, folgte ich die Lahn ostwärts bis Marburg, dann Richtung Süden nach Giessen, und von dort bis zum Rhein - insgesamt 275 Kilometer.

Translation: “Beautiful Feudingen”

My first riding companion followed me about 3 kilometers.

There is something very soothing about listening
to running water.

Several wooden bridges span the river near its source.

Many cycling trails were not hard surfaced.

The Lahn River Cycling Trail is lined with boxwork buildings and watch towers.

The Lahn at this point looks much like the Mummling River which runs through the town were I live.
