August 23, 2022,Wanderung: Wildemann, Keller, Alberttturm,Schweinebraten

After a strenuous bus ride, the hike went over the spider past the Winterberg opencast mine to the Albert Tower.
Unfortunately the restaurant was closed. But we could take drinks from the fridge at the restaurant. Payment was made in a cash register of trust.
Then we hiked back to Wildeman via the roast pork freshly strengthened.

October 3, 2023,In Erinnerung an Horst: Wildemann zum Iberger Albertturm

Horst loved Wildemann. It's a pretty place too. This hike offers spectacular views of Wildemann and the surrounding landscape. The Iberg Albert Tower used to be a forest restaurant, pea soup, plum cake... Attempts are currently being made to rebuild something here. Currently there is only self-service beer and soda. The way back is then much faster. Nice tour!
