Experience nature and simultaneously take a journey through many centuries – on the Time Paths and the Limes hiking trail, we discover magnificent castles such as the Landgraves' in Bad Homburg, Königstein, Falkenstein, or Oberreifenberg, up to the sturdy walls of medieval castles. A great leap in time happens during the visit to the Altkönig: the impressive stone walls were already built by the Celts in the 4th and 5th centuries BC! In the second part of the tour, we hike along the UNESCO World Heritage Limes. The Limes hiking trail leads us to fort remains and the most important Roman attraction in the region: the Saalburg! In the castle park of Bad Homburg, the circle of this "hike through the millennia" closes.

Want to become a summit conqueror? Then head to the Heilklimapark Hochtaunus! From the Pfahlgraben portal, we choose the longest circular route PG3 to experience silence in the magnificent high forest and recharge your energy. The initially very gentle profile gently prepares us for nature and offers the chance to shed everyday life. After Fuchstanz, it gets more demanding because now the Großer Feldberg wants to be climbed. At the top, fresh mountain air and a great view reward us for the effort.

A short but strenuous hike on the E1, which really challenges the legs on the last 3 kilometers, on the ascent to the Großer Feldberg. But the view from the top compensates for it.

Dear hiking friends!
The route starts in Oberursel and goes via Sandplacken to the Großer Feldberg and back to Oberursel via the Altkönig. The paths and trails are partly gravelled and partly just small footpaths in the forest. The route can be comfortably done in five hours.
We had a lot of fun and good spirits.
