March 10, 2024,Wäller Tour Hohe Hahnscheid - Irmtraut

My first tour in the Westerwald, and I have to say that Lied is right when he says: "Oh, you beautiful Westerwald, the wind whistles so cold over your heights." 😂 It was really cold wind today.
The tour starts at the old town hall in Irmtraut, but there are only a few parking options here.
After the start, we …

The tour begins at the Catholic Church of Maria Gebet von Irmtraut, leads around the basalt hill Hohe Hahnscheid and through the Holzbachschlucht. There are three cemeteries, three chapels, five wayside shrines and three crosses on the tour. It is a beautiful devotional tour through forest and meadows.

Collecting makes you happy. Collecting is addictive. At least that's how I feel when hiking. 😚
Whether on the dream trails or here in the Westerwald with the Wäller tours, it's like a Panini album. Once you start, you want to have them all. 😅
Today's tour took us through the Holzbachschlucht, which is currently very water-rich.
Informative boards line …

First hike of the year.
Every weather has its charm 🙂.
Hiked the tour clockwise.
Beautiful tour through the Holzbachschlucht, only the last part of Seck back is unspectacular. Here you can also proceed according to the motto "The shortest connection between two points is a straight line".

Today was a tour in the beautiful Westerwald. One of the well-known "Wäller" tours. With lots of information along the way, we went over the Hohe Hahnscheid and through the Holzbach Gorge. Awesome!!
Fiete, this old nibbling beast, was all excited and was hanging on my back... but that's what little brothers do - but he's gotten so fast, I …
