Arrive in Wettenberg — the municipality beneath Gleiberg castle on Gießen's north-western edge — with a private fixed-price transfer from Frankfurt Airport (FRA).

Wettenberg was created in 1971 from Krofdorf-Gleiberg, Launsbach and Wißmar and takes its name from the hill whose castle ruin, Burg Gleiberg, is the landmark of the whole Gießen basin. The keep of the Gleiberg is visible from the A480 and from most of Gießen, and its castle restaurant and the neighbouring Vetzberg ruin make a popular evening walk. Around 12,000 people live in the three villages, most working in Gießen, Wetzlar or Marburg, and the Krofdorfer Forst to the north is one of the largest contiguous woodlands in the region. Gießen city centre is 6 km away, Marburg about 25 km up the Lahn.
The Frankfurt Airport to Wettenberg transfer follows the A3, A5, A480 corridor with consistent journey times of around 1h. Your FrankfurtRide chauffeur drops you at any address in Wettenberg — hotel, business, or private residence — all at the same fixed price with no detour surcharge.
