    Hiking

    The Hangmotte Alfter, also known as the Old Castle, is an abandoned ring wall system.
    The remains of the castle mound and ditch still bear witness to the early medieval moth-type hilltop castle (tower hill castle). The remains are classified as a ground monument.

    Hiking

    Some of the paths no longer exist and were extremely pitted after the heavy rain on 07.2021. It is essential to pay attention to the warning signs.
