"He will come through this hollow way."

very nice route, little traffic

Once you have "worked" your way up from the Hönne valley from Garbeck and via Leveringhausen to the Kohlberg, you can reward yourself with the kilometer-long descent through the Stephanopler valley to Hemer-Sundwig. Be careful: the road is quite narrow, and cars occasionally come towards you.

Quite unexpectedly, you suddenly find yourself in front of the opening in the rock and can enjoy the unfortunately quite short path through.

The scenery is indeed extremely attractive, especially in spring. On a Saturday afternoon, perhaps 6 vehicles overtook me. It's hard to imagine less traffic in our latitudes.

The name of the small town of Stephanopel actually comes from the Balkans. At the end of the 18th century, Stephan Lührmann, a manufacturer and merchant in the field of canvas, traded heavily with the countries in the East and learned about place names that ended in -pol, which was derived from the Greek polis. Without further ado, he named the settlement in which he ran his business after himself: Stephanopolis or Stephanopel, as it is called today.

I've already ridden this route twice. The gradient is pleasant to ride🚴. Beautiful valley.

Is a beautiful valley
