Lots of variety and Waldbreitbach in the Wiedtal from its most beautiful side, this is how this Wäller tour presents itself. Impressive paths lead you up to the Bärenkopp. In doing so, you rarely lose sight of the wonderful Wied.

From Waldbreitbach, the trail leads along the banks of the Wied River to the heights of the Westerwald. After the start, you quickly leave Waldbreitbach and follow the Wied River. Beyond the campsite, the path passes the old Jewish cemetery and ascends in long switchbacks. The rugged Hochschneider Seifen is a natural beauty with eroded basalt pools to the right …

Crosses accompanied me today. I asked myself where the expression "it's a cross with you" comes from.

I didn't feel like it today, but then I didn't feel like staying at home either 😄..I thought about it briefly and decided to visit the Wällertour Bärenkopp again. It's been a long time and I was last in the Christmas village in Waldbreitbach. What is there to say, it's just a really wonderful tour👍😉
