Every time I pass the sign "Wewelsburg - Germany's only triangle castle" on the A44, I think to myself that I would like to hike there one day. Today I finally made it!
It is worth it .. Nice paths and hardly met people. Highly Recommended

Our hike began at the tranquil Klus Chapel and led us along the sunny slopes of the Alme Valley. In the sunny, crisp weather, we enjoyed the picturesque, unspoiled stretch of the Alme River before beginning the gentle ascent to Wewelsburg Castle.
