Another tour from the hiking book my wife gave me last year.
Start at the same parking lot as the first tour in the morning.
On this tour, I head in the opposite direction from Lindscheid and after 150 meters directly onto a beautiful, narrow path. This leads me into a forest, where I first descend to the Sondertorsiefen and …

I can only recommend hiking the D1. At the end there was a little penetration exercise 😅. I will hike this circular route again in spring or autumn. Then it will definitely be even …

Tonight it was like vacation on the doorstep. Saw masses of tiny toads on the trail early in the hike. They were as tiny as a fingernail. I tried not to kick as many dead as possible. At the end of the hike there was a deer. It is worth adding about 250 meters of asphalt at Dortenhof, because after …

What a beautiful tour from the Grosse Dhünn Lindscheid hiking car park. Lots of water💧, lots of forest 🌲 and views from beautiful plateaus ⛰️. The name of the tour fits perfectly.
Between km 2.3 and 3.0, work needs to be done to remove dead wood. Otherwise, a really nice round trip along the Dhünn, where you could plan a …
