Information

Directions

Hike from the hiking parking lot via the Silberg cross and Kophelle to Brachthausen and enjoy some wonderful views over the hiking area of the municipality of Kirchhundem - in the middle of the Rothaarsteig. In Brachthausen, the Nikolaus-Platz square by the church invites you to linger before continuing on the A1 circular trail in a steady uphill climb to Kohlhagen and the pilgrimage church (Sauerland Seelenort). After a contemplative stop at Kohlhagen, it is worth making a short detour to the "Ahe" and the farm café. From the pilgrimage church, the route continues along the procession path to Wirme and from there along a steep path to the Wegescheid hiking parking lot (alternative route along the road; this route is recommended in wet weather).
