After reaching the hill from Wetter through a shady valley, the path winds its way above the valley of the Ruhr along the mountains.
Highlight is undoubtedly a lovingly designed seating area with a small garden. From there, there is a beautiful view of the Hartkortsee.

View of Lake Harkort

Highlight • Viewpoint

After all, you pedal up almost 150 vertical meters here - it feels like a few more. So high can the pot! And so nice: The view of the Harkortsee is really beautiful. The trail here meanders along a ridge, which often reveals the view of the Ruhr valley with its lake.
