This Sunday we were on the Rothaarsteig and it was simply a dream

A nice, comfortable tour.
The suspension bridge was really nice, especially for me with my fear of heights.🤭
Luckily it's getting better now and I dared to go over it.
If you also know the problem, you can also go around the outside 😉.
Unfortunately, the gastronomy in Schanze and in Latrop was closed.
But there are plenty of wave …

Day 2 on the Rothaarsteig. This time we headed east. The weather was so wonderful that we kept extending the tour, which was originally supposed to be a loop from Jagdhaus to Latrop.
It was simply wonderful.

Start/Finish: Schanze hiking car park, Schanze
I set off for the Rothaarsteig trail. The forest was covered in thick fog in the morning. I walked the Rothaarsteig trail to Latrop. I got a bit lost in Latrop, but from the Golddorf route, I rejoined the Rothaarsteig trail and continued uphill along a path. Wild boars are plentiful here.
I took …

Day 1 - Hotel in Latrop, and from there we set off. Part of the route was along the Rothaarsteig, which unfortunately had very wide paths (2.5-3.0 m)... not ideal. Conclusion: The Rothaarsteig is not recommended due to the many wide paths; it feels like a highway through the forest, even though there are hardly any people around. There were …
