Hexenweg (Witches' Path) in Deilbachtal

Highlight • Trail

We walked through the Witches' Path, I can only recommend including it in your tour otherwise you will miss an absolutely rustic path. Of course better during the growing season!

Very nice tour of the Deilbachtal, north of Wuppertal. The path runs through forest, past fields, meadows and farms and also has a few climbs. The asphalt shares are absolutely within limits. You can park and stop afterwards at the "Op dä Höh" restaurant.

A lovely afternoon stroll along beautiful trails. From the Felderbachtal valley via the Hexenweg (Witches' Trail) into the Deilbachtal valley. The trail becomes increasingly exciting and varied. It seems like every 100 meters there are new, exciting views of the wild Elfringhausen Switzerland. Great trail! 👌

Mud or asphalt was the motto today. So today we only encountered drivers and few hikers 😅

Many beautiful views of the surrounding valleys, the route is also on the migration route of cranes during autumn migration. We have seen and heard several thousand birds flying by over a long …

What do you do when you've wasted most of Father's Day doing nothing, completely unmotivated? Right! You go for a short hike to ease your guilty conscience. 😉
