September 14, 2025,Fernblicke vom Haarstrang – von Ostbüren entlang der ehemaligen Steinbrüche bei Frömern nach Bausenhagen

A wonderful Sunday hike in the best hiking weather with the SGV Dortmund-Höchsten, very varied, with some asphalt, but also many surprisingly natural paths. And thanks to the magnificent views in all directions and the extremely friendly hiking group, this hike deserves five ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Thank you 😘@SibylleK

Yesterday was a really great hike, only at the former Frömerner quarry the blackberry bushes were very dense, so we took a shortcut there. Greetings Markus
