Southeast of Kassel lies the Söhre, also called Söhrewald. Here it goes up to 643 meters, the Hirschberg is the highest point. That means: If you want to get over here, climbing is required. That's worth it. Scenic it is really nice, up there you have a good view and of course there's a fast descent as a reward.

I have always enjoyed driving the section through the forest, but much better now, since the road was recently (as of 12/21) re-asphalted. 🤩
