From the hiking trail at the Birkhof Chapel, you can clearly see the long traffic jam to Phantasialand. Thank goodness I am on foot. Inspired by a hike from @sabinewandert (Through the cool Altwald Ville), I followed this beautiful hike today.

    Sehr gut zusammengestellt! In der Ville gibt es viele Schotterwege, die einfach nur stur geradeaus führen. Diese hat Wilhelm mit seiner Tour so gut wie möglich vermieden (lässt sich natürlich nicht immer so umsetzen). Es gibt nette Wiesenwege und recht wenig Asphalt. An diesem heißen Sonntag waren wir allerdings auch froh, wieder in den Wald zu kommen, und abseits der etwas langweiligen Schotterwege ist der Ville-Wald auch wirklich schön. Nebenbei gibt es immer mal wieder etwas zu entdecken, z. B. das Swister Türmchen mit seiner 800 Jahre alten Geschichte. Nette Runde, machen wir sicher nochmal, vielen Dank dafür!

    Wir sind die Strecke mit dem Fahrrad gefahren, da unserer Meinung nach die breiten Wege im Villewald dafür besser geeignet waren. Hat uns viel Spaß gemacht!
