August 28, 2025, View of Dreifelden and Dreifelder Weiher

Driving from Dreifelden towards Rothenbach, there's a nice rest stop with a bench and trash can. Great view of the Dreifelder Weiher pond.

Although it's a bit away from the pond, it's quiet here, except on Sundays and public holidays, of course.

The large Freilingen campsite is located at the Postweiher pond. Visitors will find a large lawn, swimming areas, and boat rentals. The water quality is excellent. Various hiking trails run along the Postweiher pond, including the 5- and 7-Weiher-Weg (5 and 7-Weiher-Weg) and the WesterwaldSteig (Westerwald Trail).
