    There is a lot to admire. Hikes can be started directly from the parking lot. Rothaarsteig, the forest sculpture path or the Kyrill path are very interesting. The ranger station is also right on the Kyrill path.

              Large public car park located on the outskirts of Schanze. The Kyrill-Pfad is a stone's throw from here.

                From here you can only continue on foot or by bike. Many hiking trails for long or short hikes start here.

                  It's always worth a visit here. Especially after a hike on the Waldskulpturenweg, the Rothaarsteig or the Kryrillpfad make you hungry and thirsty.

                    The guest can find peace and relaxation in the inns in the small villages. Many hiking trails invite you to take a short or long hike.

                      Schanze is a hilltop village directly on the Rothaarsteig and on the forest sculpture trail. There is also a Kyrill trail. Meanwhile the Kyrill-Path is slowly growing again. There is also a parking lot for hikers at the beginning of the village.

                        Their coffee is also highly recommended.
                        You can take the metal coffee cups home as a souvenir, but they cost €9!! (August 2021) .....a bit too expensive, in my opinion.

                          Three times a day you reach the Kyrillpfad by hiking bus from Schmallenberg.

                              There are many hiking trails from the hill. The kyrill path is there too. A great inn in town and good parking

                                        There is a large parking lot right at the beginning of the village. The place is closed to cars. Starting point for many beautiful hikes.

                                                  The hiking bus takes the hiker to the start of his stage. a very nice opportunity to take a longer route on the Rothaarsteig, the forest route or the E1 long-distance hiking trail.
