Who doesn't know the famous Westerwald song? Oh, you beautiful Westerwald, the 🌬 whistles on your heights....! Thank goodness 🥶, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to do the hike. You would probably have gotten stuck in the mud😁so much for the low groundwater level!! Very nice, well-signposted hike👍👌
