Beautiful, small park on a hill above the city. At the idyllic pond you can enjoy the peace and quiet on benches while watching the fish. There is a memorial in the direction of the city, from where you can see Laasphe. The hiking trail "Bierwegelchen" leads past here.

On the way Hugo Kracht hut to Entenberg there is the possibility to catch long views to Bad Laasphe or hinterland (Breidenbach, Kleingladenbach).

From time to time you can watch paragliders taking off and how they glide down into the valley, which is gentle on their joints.

April 30, 2023,Lahn - Facette Entenberg (Bad Laasphe)
A lap after the early shift of the consorts led Fiete and me today to the Entenberg in Bad Laasphe. There were great views, there were mountains for panting two-legged friends (two-legged friends mind you)...
But they also took their time and took a lot of photos.

After the two stages that didn't quite match the quality of the previous stages of the Lahnwanderweg, I did another short circular hike around Bad Laaspe... and wow, they do exist here! This trail had everything: lots of small singletrack, challenging climbs and descents... a very beautiful trail 👍👍... The last 1.5 km or so aren't part of it; I …

Natural, winding paths and forest paths, which always provide wonderful views, also lead off the usual routes over the summit of the Entenberg. The Lahn facet offers contrasts. Infinitely wide views over the Wittgenstein mountains, enchanted paths, cozy rest areas, tough climbs. You will be rewarded with an impressive view of the Entenberg summit. With a bit of …

Great way from the guest house in Bad Laasphe via the spa park and the Hugo-Kracht-Hütte up to the Entenberg.

You have to see the view there. Then it goes back to Bad Laasphe on the well-marked Lahnfacette Entenberg. Great!

promises a lot on the internet, but actually consists of about 1/4 of unkempt paths, the rest are wide forest paths, the forest is mostly dead or cut down. At the end of the tour, the path was massively thrown up with dead trees, no getting through, and there were still completely desolate trees. Attempt other way towards ended also …

Today we walked the Lahn Facette Trail from Bad Laasphe. The tour is very nice to walk. It only consists of forest paths and trails with great views of Breitenstein, Niederlaasphe and Bad Laasphe ☀️🥾🤩

Walked the Lahn-Facetten Entenberg loop at 16° and glorious sunshine. It offers beautiful paths and trails as well as great views.
I recommend parking at the Schützenhaus, from there you can start the tour in both directions.
