Limbach: Hotels and Accommodation
Limbach has more than 25 circular hiking trails, which together cover well over 300 kilometres. They connect the WesterwaldSteig with other local trails.
Hiking trails
The “Deutsches Eck des Westerwaldes” route begins at the Haus des Gastes in Limbach and crosses the Kleine Nister via the old Limbach stone arch bridge. It passes the Limbach Village Museum, includes a detour to the Hartenberg viewpoint with views across the Kroppach Switzerland region, and returns to Limbach via the Lützelau Mill.
The tenth stage of the WesterwaldSteig leaves Limbach along the Kleine Nister towards the Heunigs Höhlenweg trail and the Hohe Ley viewpoint. The long circular trail “Bachgeflüster” runs from Marienstatt via the Assberg slate quarry, Hohe Ley and Limbach to the Ehrenhain memorial grove near Atzelgift and the Edelstein mine.
Landscape
Limbach is part of the Kroppach Switzerland region, which is part of the Nistertal Landscape Conservation Area. The detour from the “Deutsches Eck des Westerwaldes” route to Hartenberg offers views across this landscape.
Culture
The historic Assberg slate quarry, also known as “Schiwakoul”, comprises an open-cast mine approximately 240 metres long and 70 metres wide. The quarry is freely accessible to visitors and hikers. Its underground workings lie 20 metres below ground and can be accessed via more than three stairways. The Assberg slate quarry is located directly on the WesterwaldSteig, the Marienwanderweg and the Druidensteig.
The Limbach Village Museum is housed in “Miens Schauer”, a half-timbered barn dating back to 1770. Across four floors, it displays more than 2,000 exhibits on local history. The seventh stage of the Druidensteig leads to Limbach; there, the Village Museum and the Assberg visitor mine are highlighted.
