An impressive hiking experience through meadows and forests. Fabulous panoramic views, lakes, wild streams, steep gorges, and gentle mountain peaks. The Westerwald-Steig is part of the TopTrails of Germany.

On the Westerwald-Steig, the experience-hungry hiker traverses one of the most characteristic low mountain ranges in Germany. Unspoiled nature, breathtaking panoramas, and idyllic valleys: dozens of lakes, monasteries, castles, fortresses, and historic old towns. On the 11- to 16-stage route hike, hiking becomes a premium experience. The Westerwald-Steig offers a wealth of natural conditions for a multifaceted hiking experience: intact nature, rural peace, lively small towns alongside farming tradition. The Westerwald-Steig is the experience artery right through the Westerwald. 235 km pure nature. High up and deep down. Full of surprises, full of highlights, full of experience peaks.
