Lesson #4 on the train: if you're buying a Hessen pass (for up to 5 people to travel anywhere in the state of Hessen) make sure your destination is in the state of Hessen. Luckily the conductor let us off thanks to some friendly germans in the next seat (we had only just gone over the boundary).
We caught the train to Feudingen, just 10km short of the source of the Lahn river, but as far as we could go by train. Then it was a very pleasant bike ride for 30km back to Friedensdorf where we had started last weekend. Quite a definite valley up here with steepish sides, lots of trees interspersed with farmland and small villages. Very pretty and very different from the lower Lahn.
All that cycling deserved cake and coffee!
