This Highlight goes through a protected area
Please check local regulations for: Naturpark Teutoburger Wald / Eggegebirge
Location: Warburg, Höxter, Detmold District, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
You can quickly descend from Eggeweg to Hardehausen via the Mickenpatt. Initially quite steep, the path becomes a little flatter after crossing the "Oberen Hangweg". Accordingly, only the first piece makes certain demands on the driving technique, the rest is "easy going". Something else about the name:
In the local language, the word "micken" used to mean bread. The name Mickenpatt specifically stands for the route that people used to take to Hardehausen Monastery to get bread. In the area around Hardehausen there are two paths called Mickenpatt. One coming from the direction of Bonenburg and this piece from Kleinenberg.
