Not much farther away are Kastellaun, which lies on Bundesstraße 327 and the Hunsrückhöhenstraße (“Hunsrück Heights Road”, a scenic road across the Hunsrück built originally as a military road on Hermann Göring’s orders), and Simmern, through which runs Bundesstraße 50, where there are indoor and outdoor swimming pools along with shopping and entertainment facilities.

The municipality lies in the Hunsrück roughly 9 km northeast of Simmern and 8 km northwest of Rheinböllen, above the Grundbach just upstream from where it empties into the Simmerbach near Kisselbach.
