At the foot of the Alde Berg motte

The remains of the castle complex and the surrounding nature area offer a beautiful backdrop. Especially the view from the viewpoint (water view 22) over the lake is fantastic.

Great round with friends. Good to drive. Delicious lunch in the Dahlheim mill. In the meantime, a piece of cake. Unfortunately got a flat tire 😤. Pushing was announced, fortunately only the last 1.5 km. All in all a nice Sunday outing.

It was a fantastic tour.
The weather held up, the route was varied, as were the mills.
There were hardly any people on the road, you were so often alone and could enjoy nature. In the forest at the Mühlenbach I was even lucky enough to see three fawns drinking water.
Unfortunately, the cell phone pictures don't show it well. …

The search for the many mills was also exciting. Culinary we were lucky this time in the Dahlheimer Mühle. Finally, we wanted to …

This time, however, from a different starting point and with a few obstacles.🚧 The paths along the Schwalm and through the forest were barely passable. Recently, some paths there were apparently completely flooded. There were also sandbags from the last flood in front of a thatched-roof …

Holtmühlenweiher and café directly on the lake.
The Holtmühlenweiher pond is one of the largest mill ponds in the region. Gazing at the often mirror-smooth water surface is a calming experience. The mill is located in the valley of the Mühlenbach stream, just outside Wegberg, in a small wooded area. The restaurant in the former milling room takes advantage of …

This beautiful autumn tour leads past numerous mills, most of which have been beautifully restored.
The route is very varied, passing through forests, small villages, and country lanes... simply beautiful.
