The starting point is the hiking board in the center of the village.Well marked with the signpost B3, the path leads us south through the European gold village of Bruchhausen.This section of the trail offers a very special view of the Bruchhauser Steine natural monument. It is not always possible to admire the four rock giants together like this. The route continues high above the "Heu" to the "Ochsenkreuz".Here, a refuge invites us to take a break. We continue via the mountain station of the Sternrodt ski lift to Burbecke Platz.The path now runs together with the Rothaarsteig (well marked with the "lying" R on a red background) to the Langenberg, the highest elevation in NRW (843 m). A cross marks this special place. A set of seats invites you to rest. You can immortalize your tour in a summit book (attached to the foot of the cross). Well rested, you then continue on the way back to the village of Bruchhausen.From here, the trail runs along the border between North Rhine-Westphalia and Hessen - old boundary stones mark this state border. We reach the Richtplatz, a medieval place of justice, where we turn left. Following the B3 markings on the Rothaarsteig (signpost R ), we reach the starting point in the Europa-Golddorf Bruchhausen via the Abfuhrweg.
