Limburg an der Lahn is a real gem in western Hesse and a popular destination for anyone looking to combine culture, nature, and driving fun on a convertible tour in Hesse. The city is known for its impressive cathedral, its well-preserved old town, and its location directly by the picturesque Lahn – an ideal starting point for relaxed tours through the Lahntal and the surrounding low mountain ranges.
With the convertible through the Lahntal and over mountain ridges
The surroundings of Limburg offer a variety of worthwhile routes for convertible drivers. The drive along the Lahn towards Weilburg or Diez is particularly beautiful – the route follows the river through green valleys, past castles, vineyards, and historic bridges. Alternatively, a detour into the Limburg Basin and further into the Taunus or the Westerwald foothills with their winding high roads and small villages is also worthwhile.
A section of the German Avenue Road runs through the region, allowing drivers to drive under historic tree-lined avenues on some parts of the route – perfect for those who want to enjoy not only panoramic views and culture but also scenic elegance. Moreover, Limburg is part of the German Half-Timbered House Road and the Lahn Vacation Road.
