Once you reach the top, you know what you've done. You can build up good speed on the descent.

🪨 The Roman Lake – Rest Stop on the Cursed Stones Trail The Roman Lake is located near the trail to the so-called "cursed stones" and is the perfect place to rest or spend the night. Those hiking or cycling the trail will find a peaceful spot amidst woods and fields to pitch their tent or simply take a break. The area is natural, with a level shoreline and a clear view of the sunset – ideal for a night in nature. From a cultural and historical perspective, the name "Roman Lake" is likely derived from ancient settlements and roads dating back to Roman times. Finds in the surrounding area suggest that Roman traders and troops once passed through here as they established trade routes across Westphalia. The lake may have served as a watering place on an old trade or military route – hence the name. The Roman Lake is of particular cultural and historical interest because it likely refers to ancient settlements and roads from Roman times. Today, the quiet surroundings hardly remind one of that time, but the combination of nature, history and mysticism makes the place a special stopover – especially if one is hiking in the footsteps of the cursed stones.

The former fire station now houses a bicycle shop. There's an ice cream shop in Reken.
