Working in the Westerwald

The location of our headquarters in Wallmenroth has the best of both worlds. It is a mixture of nature, industry and also a great place to live in. Thanks to attractive rent and affordable prices for ground, as well as non-existent anonymity, the dream of an idyllic life can be realized in Wallmenroth and the nearby Betzdorf.

Location

Three kilometers west of Betzdorf, located in the north of Rhineland-Palatinate and part of the administrative district Altenkirchen, the picturesque local community Wallmenroth connects the regions Westerwald and Siegerland. A well laid out road network offers quick connections to the Rhine-Main area and the Rhine-Ruhr area. The closest international airports are Cologne/Bonn and Frankfurt on the Main and they can be reached easily by car or train. The local public transport brings you around well and thanks to fairly quick and reasonably priced train connections, you can reach Aachen, Cologne, Bonn, Siegen and Kreuztal without much trouble. Betzdorf is a strategically important railroad hub in the local public transport, which also shows by its connection to the county Hessia towards Limburg and Dillenburg and to the Westerwald towards Daaden. Alternatively, several bus lines leave from the town center and connect the neighboring towns and administrative districts.

Nature All Around

The area around Wallmenroth is known for mountain ranges rich in woodlands, placid half-timbered villages and a diverse and beautiful nature. The local community, which is located in the valley of the Sieg, has a number of sights to offer, like the bell house, rich in tradition, or the mountain cross. The wildlife reserve gray heron colony as well as numerous hiking and cycling paths invite you to explore the region. Some of the most popular hiking trails are the "Westerwald-Steig" and the "Rothaarsteig". Lovely farm and barn cafes as well as many local and village museums give the hiking trails a unique charm that makes you want to explore even more.
