Nice view of the Ilsetal. You can already see part of the route that you will be on a little later when you walk the Ilsetal path.

Ilsetal Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Nice little bridge over the Ilsebach. The Ilsetal is rightly so popular because it is very idyllic and overall very quiet. Traffic on the county road is limited.

Weidelbacher Pond

Highlight • Lake

The pond is located directly on the Ilsetalpfad Rothaarsteig track and is used for fish farming. Therefore, there is a ban on fishing and bathing for humans and dogs. Here …

Bettelmannsbuche Shelter

Large refuge with grill in the middle of the forest. The name goes back to "traveling people" who are said to have camped here.

July 3, 2025,🌿 Rothaarsteig-Spur ~ Ilsetalpfad 🌿

I'm actually totally in love with the Rothaarsteig trail, but the Ilsetal Trail didn't really appeal to me. Maybe it was the wrong time of year...
We started from the Feudingen hiking portal. It's easy to park the car here, and just a few steps away you're already in the countryside. Now it's a long uphill climb. To our dismay, …

Another beautiful, varied path. Not particularly demanding, but with great views and the beautiful Weidelbacher Weiher as a highlight.

May 8, 2024,Rothaarsteig Spur ~ Ilsetalpfad

Nature offers us the most beautiful moments.

The Rothaarsteig trail "Ilsetalpfad" has a few of them to offer. They are lined up like pearls on a string. Extensive views over the surrounding mountains, which guarantee panoramic views in several places. Wildly romantic valley passages on enchanted paths, embedded in massive, primeval rock formations, which make the path seem mystical in …

The two-legged friend needed some fresh air! Okay, he's had plenty to do at home and elsewhere lately—but today it wasn't that hot, so Fiete and I got a little "human" exercise in! We don't want to be the culprit, otherwise people will end up saying we're lazy dogs. 😁
So we headed to Feudingen on the Rothaarsteig trail, Ilsetalpfad. …
