We walked through the Witches' Path, I can only recommend including it in your tour otherwise you will miss an absolutely rustic path. Of course better during the growing season!

A hiking region for heart & soul, just to switch off & enjoy 🥰, along with sporting activities 🥾. In the hilly expanse, 'woman' clearly notices that this is where the Bergisches Land begins. Really nice idyllic and original paths along the Deilbach, through forests and over fields. What a fantastically beautiful day 🧡🍂☀️‼️

😎 Witch Round Herzkamp 😎 and back...

For us, despite the 32°C today, it was a nice training lap for the E5
(12Kg field pack, 2L water consumption, 1Kg lost and still quite fit on it...)

The route is nice to hike, but then came the reward 👌😊

@Niko's Wanderlust then thanks for the round.
Varied, with great views, single trails and some asphalt.
Absolutely recommendable 🍀
