March 16, 2025,Runde um Hohenstein mit Wildgehege 🥾🐓❤️🦬
A great hiking trail with beautiful paths off the beaten track. The highlight is Hohenstein with its view of the Ruhr. We'll be back. But with provisions! There were plenty of places to sit along the way.

Best wishes! 👋🏻🌞

The nice thing about this hike is that 90-95% of the trail is shaded by forest. Therefore, it is also suitable for warmer temperatures.

Sunday pre-hike for the Wednesday tour of the SGV-Dortmund Höchsten...the Wittener Hohenstein is always worth a visit. Water, natural paths, lots of forest with beautiful beech trees, great views of the Ruhr valley, simply beautiful!
