April 30, 2025, Bench and Bridge on the Westerwaldsteig at Krombachtalsperre

On the way from the campsite to Rehe, you can now finally take a path that doesn't directly follow the campsite access road. It's great for mountain biking.

Unfortunately, there is not much to see in winter. (just a few icy trees, no water in the stream) In spring/summer/autumn you can enjoy the beautiful landscape. (unfortunately there is hardly any water on hot summer days)
