a little limited, definitely next time.
The excursion destination in the Sauerland

On a 🌞 autumn day, we went hiking to the Bruchhauser Steine.
Apparently, several people had the idea.😯😀
The parking lot wasn't ideal... we paid €6.50 admission per person.
There's a parking lot behind the Steine, from where you can reach the stones in less time and for free.
A visit to the Steine was definitely worth it.👍😎

Tour around the Bruchhauser stones with silver lake and fire oak. A great tour, but definitely only for fit people, as it is quite uphill. The stones are absolutely worth seeing and the effort to climb the top one is rewarded with an absolutely amazing view

I got to know the stones 1 1/2 years ago at a friends weekend and went on the wonderful tour with my husband today. It starts with a very steep climb. We then walked against the signs to the stones because the whole area is fantastic. So we met fewer people. A stone can be climbed. Great view. However, suddenly …

The forecast promises a "high" with a two-day break from rain and sunshine - let's go! We chose the nearby Sauerland region and set off very early. This way, right at the start of our tour, we can experience the fog rising and being dispersed by the sun. A short and beautiful natural spectacle! The Schmalahtal circular trail then leads …

We hardly saw any roses, but we did see some steep climbs.
Part of our route is accessible only by paying a fee. It was quite strenuous for the relatively short distance.
