Wurmtal Forest Steps

Highlight • Trail

A beautiful staircase that was "connected" to the bridge at Kläranlage Steinbusch a few months ago.

The bridge was demolished because it was no longer safe, which is a shame.

The return path or the alternative "start and finish" for the carbon route or other hikes begins at this hairpin bend. A parking lot is 100 m away in the direction of Herzogenrath.
