Alpine hut at the Dörenther Cliffs

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Very nice cabin with good opportunities for a break. The prohibition signs on the way there have been set up "wild" - the Hermannsweg may also be used with mountain bikes.

For a brief moment, you'll feel like you've reached rock bottom. But don't worry—it's guaranteed to climb again.

Plisseetal Climbing Crags

Highlight • Climb

In the first half of the year, the left part of the routes above the large slab is mostly closed (breeding season) and the hooks are then blocked - you cannot overlook the notice.

Dreikaiserstuhl

Highlight • Natural Monument

An interesting rock formation where climbers can often be seen. Or you can simply use one of the rocks for a rest and a picnic during a hike on the Hermannsweg.

Great view. In some places you should be careful because the rocks fall steeply.

Dörenther Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Dörenther Cliffs boast impressive rock formations and mysterious myths. Bizarre sandstone cliffs of all sizes and shapes, rising enchantingly up to 40 meters, line the narrow ridge paths.

November 12, 2023,Dörenther Klippen – Dreikaiserstuhl Runde von Dörenthe
A great tour 🥾through the forest and Hermannsweg with a beautiful view in Münsterland.
But you should start early. 🥾 From midday it gets full and the parking space gets tight 👍😊🐕

Showing Translation

The hike is particularly recommended in sunny weather, as the path runs almost exclusively in the shade of the forest.

Interesting what information you read when you pause under a walking mushroom 😄
Most of the route of the Teuto loop “Dörenther Klippen” was hiked and we enjoyed the sun. The ripple marks lay under a thin blanket of snow.

Just ignore the time; there were some problems with the recording. We were definitely going slower 😉

A short loop partly over the Teutoschleife Dörenther Klippen... always beautiful. Especially rich in ferns, which looks really great in autumn!

Wasn't much going on today ... just a few people ... and a couple who couldn't handle their dog 🤷‍♂️
