Small Wiehl springs hiking trail

Thanks to a commercial and advertisements, the Wiehl Dam enjoys supra-regional recognition. The Krombacher Island, the visual flagship of the Krombacher Brewery from Kreuztal, is located in the easternmost part of the reservoir.

Two very different circular hiking trails open up the Wiehl spring area to hikers. The starting point for both hikes is at the two information boards above the village of Reichshof-Wiehl.

The spring trail, marked with a Q, is 5,2 km long and leads in the immediate vicinity of the three springs from which the river "Wiehl" is formed after a short time. This is the main tributary of the Wiehl reservoir.

Below the village of Hahn, the circular hiking trail offers breathtaking panoramic views across the Reichshof landscape. A detour to the go-kart track in Hahn or the "Gut Hahnenseifen" riding stable in Hahnenseifen is worthwhile, especially for children.

Note: Unfortunately, the spring is often not visible and difficult to reach due to dryness, but you will be rewarded with a great view.
