With 104 spring outlets, the Almequellen are one of the strongest and cleanest spring discharges in Germany and are also a nature reserve.

The route goes deep through the valley and then up again to the cliff top above the Mühlental - very varied and yet not a tightrope walk.

You can experience the uniqueness of the nature reserve particularly intensively here. For those interested in geology and botany, this karst spring area offers many a surprise.
There are two restaurants in the immediate vicinity: the Eulenhof and the Almer Schlossmühle. There are of course other hiking trails in the immediate vicinity of Alme, such as the Sauerland-Waldroute, which also passes through Alme.

Alme is located in the north-eastern part of the Hochsauerland district and is therefore the gateway to the Sauerland for visitors from the north.

The village lies in the middle of undulating hills, close to the Almequellen. The altitude of between 300 and 400 meters contributes to a fairly mild climate.

Extensive deciduous and spruce forests in the immediate vicinity invite hikers to relax. The Mühlental, the source area of the Alme, is a very special gem for walkers and nature lovers.
