May 23, 2025,Wanderung über Höhen und Tiefen

The hike leads from the parking lot over the Plackeeg to the Loermecke Tower. On a clear day, you'll enjoy magnificent views in all four directions.

The hike continues over the Hessenkoepfe to the Hubertusquelle spring.

At the Hubertus Chapel, you'll find the Moosbruch raised bog and a tree-lined path that has been created there over the years. After a …

November 3, 2022,Lörmecke-Turm Rundweg A4 mit Hubertus-Quelle

A small stopover on the way back from a business trip, I've driven past here umpteen times, but today I took my time. The path itself is not particularly great (mostly gravel road) but the highlights, the views and of course the Lörmecke Tower make it special.
Unfortunately, the weather wasn't that good, but you could still enjoy the views …

Very windy, but bearable "walk" thanks to mild weather 😂 virtually no elevation gain, hardly any trees, but the tower offers a beautiful view at a great height with signage about the surrounding sights.

The 35m high Lörmecke Tower offers a breathtaking panoramic view from the Hochsauerland over the Haarstrang and the Westphalian Bay to the Teutoburg Forest. The unique building made from local Douglas fir stands is attracting attention throughout Europe!

Today we went to the Lörmecke Tower in the hope of not getting completely wet. Almost worked 🤭 Drizzle and impressive clouds. So we checked the weather app to see if there was a thunderstorm before we attempted the climb. 35 meters high in the Plackwald forest, which is no longer there. 🌪🌳 🪳🪵We climbed the spiral staircase and then …

Hike with beautiful vantage points. However, after the bark beetle catastrophe in 2019 and storm damage, the hike is more like a hike in a barren lunar landscape. That makes you think a lot. The highlight is the 35 meter high Lörmecke tower with a great view.

2nd day, 2nd round - this time with constant rain, fog and strong wind...
Basically it was a very nice round. Normally you have a very nice view, but we were happy if you could see several meters away without fog or rain blocking your view. The first highlight was the huge wooden bench, which of course invites you to …

New Year's hike - Lörmecketurm - Warstein

The goal of our first hike of the year was the beautiful circular route around the #lörmecketurm in Warstein,

When we arrived at the hiking car park, we decided to take the stroller and not the carrier for Ida because of the weather, which of course later turned out to be an absolute …
