Pillinger Höhe

Highlight • Viewpoint

The ridge between the Lennetal and the Pillingser Bach valley always surprises with its views and changes in perspective. The already structured, moving landscape relief is further enhanced by the alternation of meadows and small forest areas.

Forest path in Naturpark Sauerland-Rothaargebirge

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This trail can be flown downhill as Downhil. Whether Hard-Tail or Fully, both get their money's worth.
As a Uphill a warm up direction Clarashöh (Hard Line Klippkes Trail) or the Broch Flowtrail.

April 16, 2022,☀️Rund um Lössel (Iserlohn) 🚶🏼‍♀️🚶🏻-neue Wegführung

The circular hiking trail (white circle on a black background) has a new route from approx. 2km and is a little bit longer than the old one. The new signposts are already there and completely visible.
We really liked the circular route again and the new piece was also ok 👍🏻. It is beautifully varied and often has a beautiful …

A beautiful tour once you've made it to the beginning. The 1.5 km on asphalt aren't so great either. But the rest makes up for it. If you don't like steep climbs, the tour should be done in the direction indicated.

Tour character: The forest routes are often not accessible or immediately visible due to storm damage. The paths in the forest must then always be left, even on slopes. Sturdy shoes are therefore absolutely necessary. Not advisable in wet soil conditions, unless you love the thrill....

September 6, 2026,Stütberg-Trail – Lösseler Bach Runde von Letmathe-Dechenhöhle

Today we drove to IS-Letmathe. Parked at parking lot 1 of the Dechenhöhle.
A round through the cave museum with a subsequent 40-minute cave tour (both highly recommended).
Then we strapped on our backpacks and off we went on this very beautiful and varied tour.
With repeatedly great far-reaching views.
Lots of forest paths, but also asphalt included.
But the …

So that I don't miss the 🇦🇹 mountains so much, we've been doing some serious HM in our area or in the beautiful Sauerland for the last 2 days 💪
This is another great hiking recommendation from Come let's go hiking in the Sauerland

The sections of the path through the gardens and village at the beginning of the circular route were bypassed. The section of the path through Roden at the end of the hiking trail was shortened.

May 28, 2023,Rund um Lössel mit Dechenhöhle

Again a very nice round with great views on good paths. The Dechen cave is definitely worth a visit.

Be careful on the way through the dreamy beech forest between Lössel and Roden, it is really very steep and unfortunately there are tree trunks everywhere on the hiking trail, the signage is no longer complete there either. But if you're …

The tour, announced as sporty, lived up to its name. Right at the beginning it went steeply uphill and towards the end steeply downhill. 😃 But everything at a pleasant pace. Beautiful tour with wide views. 🌳 🌿
