Enchantingly mystical and always different – that is the Sauerland Forest Route. Quiet forest lakes and disappearing streams, mysterious moors and bizarre rock formations make a hike on the Sauerland Forest Route an intense nature experience. Native wildlife and rare plants can also be spotted in the natural landscape. Many legends surround the Sauerland. Immerse yourself and let yourself be taken into the world of giant kings, witches, and Schnadegänger.
