A striking crossroads in the forest of Ransbach-Baumbach, but be careful, there are 7 paths crossing here and unfortunately not all of them are passable due to the construction of the wind turbine

In my opinion, the most beautiful paths in the Westerwald can be found around the Malberg. Especially in autumn, when the leaves are falling!
