The ascent to the "Weisses Stein" was pretty steep. 😅 Then there was a great view up there, binoculars were available. Another beautiful tour followed with views from the Königskanzel and the Barenburg viewpoint. There was a coffee break in Café Waldkater with delicious cakes.
A detour to the Wülfinghausen monastery followed shortly before the end of the tour.

Start and finish: car park at the Wülfinghausen monastery
actual walking time: 6 hours 50 minutes

Today in a completely unknown landscape for me and also unusual for my tours: not on marked hiking trails. What can I say? It was very worth it!

Many wild, romantic, rustic and overgrown paths lead through the Osterwald.
