Directions
From the Hochheide hut, head across the Neuer Hagen nature reserve on the Hochheide towards the Hoppecke spring. When you reach the Rothaarsteig, turn right and walk along the edge of the Hochheide past the Clemensberg, which is worth a detour with panoramic views, back to the starting point.
Safety guidelines
Make sure you wear good footwear. Winter boots with a good profile or with snow claws are particularly suitable. Dress appropriately for the weather. Take a cell phone with you in case of an emergency. Use walking poles to ensure a secure grip on snow and ice. Bear in mind that walking on snow can take longer. There may be icy patches on sunny slopes.
