Hello, the municipality of Breitscheid has set up 3 motorhome pitches in Erdbacher Straße in 35767 Breitscheid and is happy to welcome visitors. With the best views of the landscape and underground, the municipality of Breitscheid is located on the eastern slope of the Westerwald in the Westerwald-Lahn-Taunus Geopark and directly on the certified Rothaarsteig and Westerwald-Steig hiking trails. The 800-year-old church village of Breitscheid was once a stronghold of the pottery and stove-making trades and is now a center of cave research in Hesse. Not only is it home to the deepest cave in Hesse, it is also one of the longest in Germany at over 13,000 meters. The mountain version of the Rothaarsteig, which is around 50 kilometers long, offers guests in Breitscheid a well-staged hiking dream on the "Path of the Senses", which connects the Hanseatic town of Brilon with the Orange town of Dillenburg. On the Westerwald-Steig from Herborn via Breitscheid to Bad Hönningen, hikers are treated to sweeping views of the varied landscape. For sports enthusiasts, cross-country ski trails of varying degrees of difficulty are groomed in winter or designated as Nordic walking trails. You can get a taste of the mountain air with a glider flight or prove your courage with a tandem parachute jump. For ball enthusiasts, soccer golf offers an unusual sporting activity. Hiking through Hesse's oldest nature reserve, climbing a coral reef, catching fantastic views and insights into caves, tunnels and burial chambers from the earliest human settlement - all this is possible for visitors to the karst and cave nature trail. The 3-8-kilometre circular route along the Westerwald-Steig trail leads through 24 stations to the geological features: from the Erdbachschwinde to the Homberg and the stone chambers, the Hessian Geotope of the Year 2015. Tradition meets modernity in the interactive Breitscheid Pottery Museum. Visitors can experience the versatility of clay as a material, from everyday ceramics such as egg-crate moulds, jugs, bowls and old water pipes dating back 260 years, to the clay army of the Chinese city of Xian and modern ceramics used in space travel and medical technology in the 21st century. The large pottery market takes place here every year on May 1st, and the doors to the Advent exhibition open on Eternity Sunday in November. Discover the variety of stalactites and stalagmites in the most beautiful light and enjoy a very special cave experience with a unique guided tour concept - a visit to the Herbstlabyrinth Breitscheid show cave is the first stalactite cave in Europe to be fully illuminated with LEDs. The best prospects for an eventful day.
