Lahnwanderweg stage 03 upstream Biedenkopf - Bad Laasphe
Bahnhof → Haus des Gastes
From Biedenkopf it goes up into the forest and with a small detour to the Columbus Temple you have a wonderful view of the opposite Landgrave Castle. And there are more highlights to follow, such as the Perfstausee. The reservoir was built in 1984 after a flood disaster and is now a popular excursion destination. It provides a home for many birds. And behind Breidenstein it goes up to the highlight of the hike: the Entenberg. With its stately 535 m height, it is the local mountain of Bad Laasphe and a popular starting point for hang gliders and paragliders. But hikers also have a great view of Niederlaasphe and the Lahn Valley here. With beautiful views of Wittgenstein Castle, you finally hike down to Bad Laasphe.
