January 24, 2023, 230124 Wällertour 05/23 | Greifenstein-Schleife (I) von Sinn bis Holzhausen

This is my entry into the Westerwaldsteig, which I want to hike little by little over the next few months. Today I chose the section on the Greifenstein loop from the train station in Sinn to Holzhausen. Next I want to hike from Holzhausen to Arborn. Recommended for hiking. https://www.ich-geh-wandern.de/greifstein-schleife ________________________________________ Directions: RB45 to Wetzlar RB90 to Sinn (10:07) Departure: Holzhausen-Ort with bus 125 to Stockhausen and further with RB45
