Den Römern auf der Spur

Siempre me gusta ir al fuerte romano de Saalburg. Esta vez combiné mi visita con una caminata a la Torre Herzberg. Ya se ha escrito mucho sobre el estado de los bosques en el Taunus. Si va de excursión allí regularmente con unos pocos, no podrá evitar notar cómo los bosques se están reduciendo. Astillas… Leer más

Again on patrol ride with the Romans - this time with a new bike.

The tour starts at Idstein train station.

I bought a hardtail mountain bike a few days ago and consciously chose a relatively short tour for today, which leads over a lot of bumpy roads with loose surfaces, gravel and grass slopes.

Please… Leer más

@Hassan ¿Velocidad media de 2,8 km/h? 🤣

No claro que no. La ruta de GPS de este recorrido es de mi época antes de Komoot. Con el programa que estaba usando en ese momento, pude combinar los días individuales en un recorrido general. Eso cambió la velocidad media porque ahora este recorrido combina varias… Leer más

Start at the train station near Lochberg. The climb up to the Saalburg was too steep for us and we had to push the bikes up almost 2 kilometers :-)

From the Saalburg it was mostly downhill. In the middle of it there were two more short pushing stretches. The first part of the tour was mainly on forest… Leer más

Roman tour No. 6

The starting point of the tour was Friedberg train station. No elevator. So the bike has to be dragged down the stairs at the platform and back up again.

The route of this tour was largely on well-developed bike and field paths, away from the roads.



The Wetterau was of great strategic importance… Leer más

Another great tour in the footsteps of the Romans.

Arrival by train. Start in Friedberg.

At the beginning of the 1st century the Romans set up a military camp in Friedberg - possibly during the Germanicus campaigns against Arminius (14-16 AD). The Wetterau represented an important marching route.

Großartige Tour entlang des Limes am Taunuskamm. Nur weiß ich nicht, ob ich dieses Abenteuer als Radtour oder Wanderung anpreisen soll 😄 Bergauf musste ich mein Fahrrad über längere Strecken schieben. Bergab liefen dann die Bremsbeläge heiß. Bitte meine Hinweise, zur Wegbeschaffenheit und Streckenf… Leer más

Eine Reise quer durch die Civitas Taunesium zum Glauberg. Der Besuch bei den Kelten ist eine Zeitreise in eine Epoche, die fünf Jahrhunderte vor der Ankunft der Römer liegt. Auf dem Rückweg geht es noch einmal quer durch die Wetterau, nach Bad Vilbel, dessen gutes Wasser schon die Kelten, Germanen und… Leer más

Schon mal 10 Kilometer weit auf einer römischen Straße gereist? Mitten im Rhein-Main-Gebiet gibt es diese Möglichkeit. In schnurgrader Linie von Diedenbergen nach Mainz-Kastel. Unbedingt mal ausprobieren.

Bitte meine Hinweise zur Routenführung am Ende des Berichts beachten.



Start dieser Tour ist in Fl… Leer más

6000 years of settlement history.

During my Roman tour No. 12, I discovered the newly created archaeological circular route on Hofheimer Kapellenberg. At that time I was on my bike and could not go to all the stations on the path with information boards. That's why I started looking for clues on this… Leer más

A short version of the Römertour Nr.12: Small round tour over the Elisabethenstraße.

First it goes up to the Flörsheimer Warte. Once there, you have already made the worst climb on this tour behind you. The Flörsheimer Warte is a very popular destination. When the weather is clear, the view extends from… Leer más

Finally another day of sunshine. So quickly out to the Romans. Probably the last time this year. This time I went looking for clues on foot.

The Holzhausen cohort fort is one of the best preserved forts on the Limes. The ground plan of the ramparts is clearly visible in the terrain - sometimes still up… Leer más

Finally sun again 🌞 Let's get out to the Glauberg and enjoy the wonderful weather on a short circular hike 💗

The first traces of settlement on the Glauberg go back to the Neolithic Age (5th millennium BC). Over the centuries the Celts, Alemanni, Franks and Staufers followed. On the top of the Glauberg… Leer más

A Sunday with bombastic weather is announced. So let's get out into nature.

Today's tour starts at the parking lot of the Hindenburg complex in Bingen. From there it goes comfortably along the riverside path, over the Nahe bridge and then on a narrow beaten path to the banks of the Rhine. The mouse tower… Leer más

One of my favorite tours in our region.

Elisabethenstrasse follows the course of the Roman military road that once connected Mogontiacum (Mainz) with the Wetterau. The course of the road runs in a dead straight line through the landscape. You can see that on the GPS track. After Massenheim we turn onto… Leer más

Ya se sabe que me interesan los romanos o las culturas antiguas. Hace diez días, estaba de viaje en Roma: Via Appia, Coliseo, colección de antigüedades en el Palazzo Masimo... Había tanto que ver y experimentar.

Hoy estuve en el Festival Romano en Alzey. Por supuesto que no fue una caminata, fue un paseo… Leer más
