===Weilburg Lahntal=== [[File:Lahntunnel Weilburg.JPG|thumb|[[Weilburg]] boat tunnel]]After Wetzlar, the valley of the Lahn gradually narrows and at Leun enters the Weilburger Lahntal. The Weilburger Lahntal belongs to the larger Gießen-Koblenzer Lahntal physiographic province, considered part of the Rhenish Slate Mountains. In the upper area of the Weilburg Lahntal (the Löhnberg Basin) are [[mineral springs]], such as the famous [[Selters (Lahn)|Selters]] mineral spring in the municipality of [[Löhnberg]]. In the lower area, where the river turns again to the south, the Lahn is entrenched canyon-like below the level of the surrounding geographic trough. The city of [[Weilburg]] is wrapped by a marked loop of the river. The neck of this noose is traversed by a boat tunnel, unique in Germany. A little below Weilburg, the [[Weil (river)|Weil]], originating in the High Taunus, enters the Lahn.
