- 4.5 (7)·Hard·33.5 km·Est. 9.5–10.5 hrPopular quality hiking trail in the Taunus Nature Park, Hesse. The Hochtaunus Limes adventure trail follows the course of the Limes hiking trail and the Limes cycle path and runs from Glashütten to Ober-Mörlen. It runs along the Limes adventure trail through the Hochtaunus region. Along the way, the route will pass the Saalburg, which is the only reconstructed Roman fort on the Limes. There are also several other watchtowers and small forts and, of course, the Limes itself along the way....
- 3.8 (3)·Hard·23 km·Est. 6.5–7.5 hrCircular route via historic roads and visits to medieval glass furnaces Technically undemanding route with inclines. The section at the Red Cross (before the Hünerweg) is very steep - push! The Hünerweg, Rennstraße and the old Poststraße before the Tenne are historic roads. On the way back, just before Glashütten, the very short detour to the remains of late medieval glass furnaces is worthwhile.
- 4.1 (3)·Moderate·6.8 km·Est. 2–2.5 hrA beautiful loop along the eastern section of the Chaffinch Trail. Agriculture has left its mark on the area; nevertheless, you walk through a charming landscape. The route is signposted for the most part and there are information boards providing information about the history of the area. The route is not suitable for bicycles and can be quite muddy in wet weather.
