Discover the region

Westernohe's geographical location is unique: it lies on the edge of the Nassau Nature Park and offers an impressive backdrop of mountains, forests and rivers. The region is also known for its picturesque villages and historic towns such as Limburg an der Lahn or Koblenz.

There are many sights for tourists to discover. Highlights include the Marienstatt Monastery with its baroque architecture and Montabaur Castle with its magnificent gardens. Those interested in culture should definitely visit the ceramics museum in Höhr-Grenzhausen.

Westernohe also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine: Here you will find typical German dishes such as schnitzel or bratwurst as well as international specialities. The local wines from the Rhine-Hesse wine-growing region are also particularly recommended.

Those who like to be active will not be disappointed in Westernohe: Hike through the forest on one of the many hiking trails or take a bike tour along the river Lahn. In winter you can even go skiing!

If it rains, there is still plenty to do! Visit one of the museums, for example, or relax with a cup of coffee in a cosy café.

Where is it most beautiful in Westernohe? That's hard to say, as the region offers so many beautiful places. However, the observation tower on the Fuchskaute and Montabaur Castle are particularly impressive.

Overall, Westernohe is definitely worth a trip! Use this travel guide as inspiration for your next holiday in this picturesque town in the Westerwald district.

    Sehr schöne Wanderung auf meist guten Wegen. Nicht wirklich anspruchsvoll. Einige schöne Aussichten. Genügend Sitzmöglichkeiten zwischendurch, um Pause zu machen. Laut Beschreibung ist der Start auf einem Wanderparkplatz, laut Karte aber am alten Rathaus in Rehe.

    Schöne Tour, aber viele Rumpelanteile, teilweise etwas verschlammt, und die Steigungen mit Schotter dürften für Fahrräder ohne Motor nur mit sehr starker Kondtion zu schaffen sein. Ingesamt sind hier wohl Leute mit Mountainbike im Vorteil.

    Verdient das "TOP" . Gute Beschilderung, gut befahrbare Wege, teils Schotter , teils Asphalt. Herrliche , hügelige Landschaft. Streckenweise etwas bergauf ein wenig anstrengend. Machen wir bald wieder.

    Tolle Tour im Westerwald! Viel Schotterwege und etwas Teerstraßen! Die Beschilderung ist überall gut sichtbar und ausreichend.

    Wieder eine gelungene Strecke der Westerwald- Touristik: abseits vom Straßenverkehr durch Feld, Wiesen und durch den Wald, heute besonders angenehm erfrischend . Etwas anspruchsvoller als die bisher gefahrenen Runden "Radrundweg Puderbacher- Land","Saynbach- Radrundweg"," Nassau- Wäller- Radrunde" und "Kleine Nistertour" im Westerwald, aber gut zu schaffen. Wir haben sogar noch um eine Runde um die Krombachtalsperre verlängert.

    Es war unsere erste organisierte Radtour mit einem E-Bike. Und es war ein wunderschöner Tag mit vielen tollen Eindrücken und Erlebnissen. Im Besonderen möchte ich die perfekte Organisation der TouristInfo Rennerod und deren Helfern loben. Wenn es zeitlich passt sind meine Frau und Ich mit Sicherheit beim nächsten Event dabei... Dankeschön für den tollen Tag !
