Historic wall on the Herrmannsweg

Highlight • Historical Site

It's nice to see how painstakingly and well the stones were fitted together in the past. Unfortunately, there are still people who have to build cairns out of them.

Tecklenburg Witches' Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Witches' Trail runs south of the Hermannsweg, halfway up the trail. Narrow paths constantly change from up to down and are sometimes very steep. Well worth the walk.

A solo round today. It was pretty cool at first. ❄️ But the sun and the ups and downs made me sweat later. 🥵

It was a very nice break in the Teuto! 🥰

Beautiful walk around the Dörenther Klippen in the Teutoburgerwald. With a stop in Tecklenburg. With the walking group. A completely different world about 1.5 hours drive from the Groningen - Germany border. Enjoyed! 😍

Today we went to the top tour of the area... The Dörenther cliffs and the witches' path in Tecklenburg. What an adventure... Beautiful paths and rocks everywhere... A huge adventure playground. There is a fixed path, but there are rocks everywhere to the right and left that want to be climbed. The most spectacular rock is the "Squatting Woman". And... …

A really beautiful and varied tour through the forest and along fields and meadows, unfortunately very popular with walkers from Brochterbeck (on the way to the alpine hut 🤔?), Not surprising in the wonderful weather! ☀️
