Next we visited the Falkenstein Berg ruins a few miles from Kronberg and up on another hill. This was once a lookout tower. From this hilltop, you could see all the way to Frankfurt.



We walked up the hill in a light rain, along a dirt path through the woods. It was so beautiful and smelled so earthy with moss, mushrooms, ferns and wet leaves underfoot.





We paid 2 Euro to enter and see the ruins, which was mostly the tower and some rock walls below it.








These teeny tiny ferns were growing in the cracks of the rock walls. They were perfectly beautiful!



I wish you could see the leaves fluttering down around us and smell the wet earth under our feet. I love these kinds of places.
