Langenberg Summit (843 m) – Highest Point in North Rhine-Westphalia

Highlight • Summit

Little known but beautiful! The Langenberg lies between Bruchhausen, Wiemeringhausen, Niedersfeld and Willingen. Rothaar and Uplandsteig run directly over the summit. There is a stamp of the Assinghauser hiking pin on the cross.

August 11, 2023,- Willingen - durchs Upland und die Hochheide 🚴🥵

Great Cottage in an Idyllic Location.
After a cool drink we went …

June 3, 2025,Von Wanderparkplatz Bruchhausen nach Silbersee und Willingen

You can't get directly to the Bruchhauser Steine by bike; there are prohibition signs everywhere. Since it wasn't busy (during the week), we pushed our bikes there. You have to pay an entrance fee! €6.50 per person, even if you just want to stop by for a quick visit. Spoiler alert: there are several paths up to the stones, though …

June 11, 2022,From Hopp To Will 😊 From Plain To Peak

From Hoppecke to Willingen - very varied, a few great trails, great Hochheide flair, again it was extremely crowded on the Ettelsberg, but the up and downhills and after the uphill to the Hoher Eimberg then uphill again to the Hochheideturm - simply great and much fun 😌. Highly recommended 👍.

This tour was exactly what I expected. A steady climb first, followed by a mostly downhill return. A stop for refreshments halfway through, and then a simply beautiful ride through the high heath.
