From the tower you can enjoy the unobstructed view of the Ebbegebirge, the Lennebergland and…

The circular tour around the HOHE BRACHT was easy to walk thanks to well-prepared and marked paths, even with some icy passages 👍
The views were simply amazing thanks to the bright blue sky 🤩 and the route we chose was not very popular despite it being Sunday and the excellent weather 🫠
The other well-marked paths that started from …

A quick walk to stretch my legs after the Altena circular trail the day before. A beautiful area I hadn't seen before, with many panoramic views. I'll look for something similar there. Just like the day before, I noticed: the wild boars had stirred everything up. 😱🤦

After our "feeder" had a long break due to illness, the doctor finally gave the go-ahead for a little walk.

Finally! Let the dogs loose...!!!

A walk on the "Hohen Bracht" in this wonderful winter magic did us all good.

Fiete and I led our two-legged friends on a little "deep snow walk" around the Hohe Bracht.
