An important tip for the Försterweg:
If you walk the Försterweg and turn left at the first fork in the road and then go directly to the right (as a Försterweg counter-clockwise), you should definitely take a lunch break here. After that there is no shelter and practically no bench for picnicking. So ... first run the 8.4 km, then pause at the Hüppelröttchen where there is a mountain festival anyway and then it goes to the second part of the way.

Hüppelröttchen is the most famous local recreation area in the municipality of Eitorf. The name comes directly from the forester's house Hüppelröttchen, which stood in the forest area from 1835 to 1972. Hüppelröttchen was also a district of Eitorfs. For 1885 two houses and 13 residents were recorded here. [1] In 1910, the forester Karl Emig was listed here and could even be reached on phone 45, as was the forest foreman Franz Wilhelm Lichtenthäler.

Wonderful and, thanks to the nicely made forest teaching boards, also very interesting rest and picnic area,
In addition, there is a spacious area so that everyone can find their own beautiful corner.
