    Tips and suggestions

    I walked the route on October 16, 2020.

    Roadbook

    From the starting point, head along the main street. At the first opportunity, turn right, briefly follow the Christine-Koch-Weg, and then at the next opportunity take the path to the right again. Now we follow a feeder to the Rothaarsteig. We follow this until the Christine-Koch-Weg catches up with us again, which we then follow briefly. After some time uphill, we take the right unnamed path, follow it through a cleared area, and at the end come to a path which we follow to the right. We cross the Christine-Koch-Weg and now follow the A1 to the Oberhundem cliffs. After admiring this natural feature, we take the A1 again and then reach the Rothaarsteig. At the Wildhöfer, we leave the trail and take the path to the left following the "K". At the Brie fork, we follow the "K" and A3 to the Alpenhaus, where we can refresh ourselves. From the Alpenhaus, we follow the Eselsweg, which takes us back to the starting point in Oberhundem.
