At the Maxstollen many information boards explain the mining history of Olsberg. Further up to the Langerberg, where an adventure trail has been established for some years.Now it goes downhill to the Ruhrauen. Over the newly built bridge the path now leads below the old railroad bridge onto the road in the direction of Schellenstein Castle. Further on you will now be guided to the district of Gevelinghausen. There, the castle is just as worth seeing as the old mill, which can also be visited by appointment. Now it goes along the river "Elpe" to the Elpe treading place, which invites once again to refresh. Further over the district Wiggeringhausen high to the Ohlenkopf. A very long stretch until you reach the pedal station "am Vossbach". The route now goes in the direction of Olsberg.The trail now leads along the pedal point "an der Ruhr" to the Hasley hut.
