ZweiTälerSteig - Stage 4

Am Wittenbach → Höhenhäuser

A scenic and varied stage between the Elz and Kinzig valleys, mostly gentle climbs (except for the ascent to Huberfelsen) Two valleys, two landscapes, to the left and right of the Elz. On the one hand—in the eastern section—there is pristine, wild nature. On the other hand—along the ridge to the west—there is a charming cultural landscape, dotted with traditional farmsteads. The transition between the two sides is marked by Landwassereck. The day begins with Huberfelsen and Prechtaler Schanze amid untamed nature, and ends with magnificent forest-edge paths in the midst of gently rolling hills.
