The singers' stage, a historic open-air stage. As early as the 1920s, the former "Bechtelsberg" singers' association, with its male choirs, organized federal singers' meetings at this romantic location.

Berchtaweg Trailhead – The Sports Clubhouse

Here it makes sense to start the "Berchtaweg". Sufficient parking spaces are available. Officially, the start and finish is the church. There are no parking spaces there.

October 17, 2021,Rundwanderung: "Berchtaweg" um Berfa

We actually only wanted to hike the marked "Berchtaweg", but missed a sign in front of Kasseler Straße and made a detour via the opposite slope. We were rewarded with a beautiful view of the town of Berfa.

On 7.5 kilometers it goes through rural idyll, enchanted forests and beautiful meadow landscapes. Numerous information boards provide information about all sorts of legends and stories that are related to the area, especially to the Bechtelsberg. I give the tour a 10 out of 10, a lot is offered in just a few kilometers! Highly Recommended!
