The contrast of airy heights and grassy green valleys gives the Westerwald its very special flair. Marvellous views offer pure nature. Hospitality and a traditional ambience can be found in the numerous small towns with their historic town centres and romantic old towns - ideal for a stop-off in between.
Clear and targeted signposting
The cycle paths are signposted according to the specifications of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate according to destination, distance and direction, thus guaranteeing safe orientation on the paths.
