Hiking

Sinter-lime springs are sources that are fed by calcareous groundwater. In many places in the Westerwald you can find these springs with their calcareous sinter deposits.

Hiking

Sinter springs - along the route, creeks bubble up with lime sinter steps that have built up over a long period of time. That's how it is in nature. 😉
