The Holperdorper is characterized by its special closeness to nature. On a challenging route, it combines numerous highlights and leads from the idyllic resort town of Lienen over colorful meadows and wide forests to the "Alpengasthof" Malepartus. In the middle of the Teutoburg Forest, the northernmost alpine-style snack station radiates alpine flair. The Holperdorper cannot boast Bavarian summit heights, but the Westerbecker Berg, at 236 meters, is the highest elevation in the entire Münsterland. In addition, trout ponds, small streams, legendary places, and beautiful farms offer pure rural idyll.  At the end of the route, the indoor pool at the forest edge as well as the barefoot park with water playground and water treading pool in Lienen entice you. Also worth seeing is the town center with many charming half-timbered houses.

    Schöner Waldweg üb. d. Landesgrenze. Viele Rastbänke. Kl. Highlight: "Schaipers Pütt" m. interessanter Geschichte (Erklärg. im Internet). "Malepartus" perfekt z. Einkehr. Leider stören viele klingelnde u. rasende Mountainbiker.

    Eine sehr schöne Strecke, die erst kürzlich wieder mit jeder Menge neuen Schildern und Markierung ausgestattet wurde ! Verlaufen fast unmöglich !! Landschaftlich finde ich Sie deutlich schöner als die große Schleife ! Ich bin Sie gestern zum dritten Mal in gut 7 Stunden gelaufen. Die vielen Anstiege sind sehr fordernd, das sollte jedem bewusst sein, der den Borgberg, Musenberg und Co. meistern will !! Die über 900 Höhenmetern sind deutlich spürbar ! Trotzdem wunderschön !!

    Wirklich schöne und sehr abwechslungsreiche Tour mit immer wieder tollen Ausblicken, gut zu bewältigenden Steigungen und vielen Rastmöglichkeiten auf der mehr oder weniger alle TERRA.track's der Gegend gestreift werden...👍😁 Allerdings empfehle ich den Start am Augustaschacht in Hasbergen, um den Aufstieg zum Hüggel-Kammweg am Anfang und nicht zum Schluß der Wanderung zu haben. Ganz nebenbei bemerkt, kamen bei mir laut App ohne jegliche Umwege 25,9km und nicht 22,8km raus...😉
