미텔호프‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

A pretty, narrow hiking trail, a little above the river "Große Nister". One could describe it as "wild and romantic" - which might sound kitschy to some.

Not only the path is interesting, but also the large boulders. Especially if you pay attention to the straight edges.

Small but beautifully located pond.

Very nice environment! Great nature reserve with various ponds.

Beautiful path through nature above the Nister. Steep passages with alpine steps, narrow places with wire ropes to hold on to and impassable ascents and descents require fitness, sure-footedness and sturdy shoes.

Along the narrow path you will find large rocks and stile walls

Enjoy the peace and let it take effect

A highlight of the slate mine is the opportunity to descend 20 meters into the tunnel. The mine has served as a supplier of slate roof tiles for Marienstatt Abbey and Hachenburg Castle since the Middle Ages. Having fallen into oblivion and only discovered by chance in an old document, the mine was rediscovered after a 17-year search and subsequently restored. Located directly on the Westerwaldsteig hiking trail, the mine is open to visitors year-round.
