Loop
This legendary extreme hike takes you on a huge loop through the Rhine-Main area around the metropolis of Frankfurt. The trail was specially designed for the challenge of covering 100 kilometers in under 24 hours. The route runs along a varied mix of paved bike paths, paved forest trails, and flat riverside paths along the Main and Nidda rivers. A central highlight is the contrast between the imposing Frankfurt skyline ("Mainhattan") and the green lungs of the region, such as the Frankfurt Green Belt and the foothills of the Taunus Mountains. Along the route, you can observe gray herons in the river meadows, foxes at dusk, and the city awakening at sunrise. Due to the extreme distance, the route is a physical and mental challenge, but there are hardly any significant inclines, which allows for a steady pace.
