The most beautiful thing is the driveway from Bruchhausen, you can still see the Bruchhauser stones from the west. If you have the opportunity to start during the week and very early in the morning, you are usually completely alone on the mountain and the morning sun shines beautifully behind the stones. Descents from Olsberg to the west down to Olsberg are not easy for those unfamiliar with the area. A lot of paths lead on the west side more or less ring-shaped around the mountain with little distance, but many vertical meters. Either you are safe on the trail and drive down through the forest, or you look for the long descent (as I did) because there is less risk. The view at the top of the summit cross is definitely worth it.

Summit of Olsberg. Grandiose view over the city, the valley and the surrounding mountain ranges.
