Discover Grävenwiesbach

Grävenwiesbach offers several specific starting points for planning a trip: the train station as the starting point for the “Around Grävenwiesbach” cycling route, the landscapes of its districts, and a selection of cultural and group activities. Other destinations are part of the broader Hochtaunus travel region and offer additional themes to consider when planning.

Getting here and the cycling route

Grävenwiesbach train station is the starting point for the “Around Grävenwiesbach” cycling route. The Taunusbahn connects it with Frankfurt and Brandoberndorf. From the station, the route passes through meadows and fields on its way to the town center. Check the current Taunusbahn timetable before setting off.

The cycling route can also be done as a shorter family ride. If you include it in your plans, you can opt for this shorter version. The station, route starting point and destination in the town center provide clear reference points for the ride.

Countryside, church and high ropes course

Gently rolling hills, valleys with streams and dense forests characterize the districts of Grävenwiesbach. The Evangelical Church of Grävenwiesbach, a Baroque church, is located near the destination. It is a Neoclassical village church dating from 1737/38 and is one of the largest churches in the area.

Another option is the high ropes course at Grävenwiesbach Youth Hostel. It offers professional supervision and team training. Groups of 10 to 15 people are envisaged; check the group size with the operator before visiting. This gives you a choice of different activities when planning: a cycling route, a church visit and a supervised group activity.
