Idyllic Alfbach Valley

Highlight • Gorge

Anyone who knows the "Valley of the wild Endert" will love this section of the route in the Alfbachtal. The Alfbach flows wildly and romantically and a small, beautiful, narrow path leads along the stream.

Pulvermaar

Highlight • Lake

The circular route is almost 2.5 kilometers, so it is also easy to manage with children. It is also wooded and therefore easy to hike even in midsummer. For a highlight, the Lastenhuddelhumpen, you should pack a stone.
