    Author’s recommendation

    +++Note on the Traumpfädchen Nette-Romantikpfad+++ The Nette-Romantikpfad uses many natural paths and narrow trails mainly in the forest. Due to the geology, you often walk on rocky or stony ground. Combined with increasingly frequent heavy rain events, it is unavoidable to encounter washed-out path sections with increased difficulty. This applies especially to the paths between the Oberwerther Höhe intersection and the Nettetal, but also the rock path and the first section of the path from the intersection back into the fields. Therefore, please always use sturdy hiking shoes for your hike on the Nette-Romantikpfad; hiking poles are also recommended.

    Safety information

    Sturdy hiking shoes and hiking poles are highly recommended for this Traumpfädchen!

    General safety instructions:

    Safety instructions - Safe hiking on the Traumpfädchen

    Hikers want narrow paths, natural paths (over forest floor, grass paths or along streams) and rocky ascents that lead to spectacular views. It is, of course, necessary to walk such paths with special attention. 

    What you should consider during your hike:   

    • Wear weather-appropriate, practical clothing that protects you from cold and wet or heat and sun.
    • Plan your hike with adequate breaks and use your energy sparingly.
    • Take enough fluids with you. Not everywhere are there places to eat or drink.
    • Please wear suitable hiking shoes that provide good grip even on slippery and steep as well as rocky and uneven paths.
    • If you think some path sections are not passable for you, you should detour or turn back. Especially in bad weather, natural paths can be muddy and slippery.
    • Especially in autumn, pay attention to fallen leaves on the ground as they can hide unevenness, roots, stones or holes.
    • You must expect such path impairments when hiking.
    • Check the internet before your hike at https://www.traumpfade.info/traumpfaedchen/wege-status/ whether the Traumpfädchen you want to hike is possibly closed, if detours exist, if path construction measures are planned, or if logging or other disturbances exist.
    • Recommended hiking months: April to October.

    Roadbook

    The route starts at the parking lot by Jakob-Vogt-Stadion in Ochtendung. Since the route is best experienced counterclockwise, first follow Schillerstraße towards Hauptstraße and then turn left onto the meadow by the Steinkreuz. A few meters lower, you will reach a tree-lined path next to the L 98. The town quickly stays behind and a field path branches off left away from the road. The path gently ascends to a wide farm road, where it continues to the right through the fields.

    At the forest edge, the Traumpfädchen bends slightly right onto a path into the forest. Soothing greenery envelops the path, which after a short descent meets the Nette-Nature-Path. Together, the paths lead gently uphill to the intersection at Oberwerthshöhe. Some attention is required here because you will stand at this intersection again on the way back. Since the next stop is at the Nette, follow the logos downhill to the right. The path descends through beautiful forest and reaches the Nette meadows. The valley unfolds romantically and provides moments of happiness, calm, and relaxation.

    The path meanders leisurely through the floodplain forest. Soon the little Engelsbach babbles beside the path, which the route follows into a side valley. Varied forest provides amusement and distracts from the climb. As the path levels out, the logos point left and lead through the source area of the Engelsbach valley to the southernmost point of the round. With a sharp left turn, you switch to an almost flat path. It turns into an exciting rock path: oak low forest alternates with mixed forest, with rocks or bright broom bushes setting accents again and again. First views enrich this magnificent passage. At an impressive rock cliff, luck is perfect as a dream lounger stands on the hillside edge to enjoy the wonderful view over the Nette valley. A few meters further, a bench complements the scenic rest area.

    From this idyll, the Traumpfädchen descends to the already-known Oberwerthshöhe intersection. Now turn right uphill, cross a crest before the path reaches the forest edge. Here, the logos send the hiker right through the open fields to an asphalt path. This leads left to the locally known Schäfersbüsch, which is quickly crossed. On the other side, the Michelberg view crowns the scenic route. Straight ahead, follow the logos back into the town where the route ends after 7.5 km at the parking lot.

    Hallo Saskia, der Weg ist absolut untauglich, um ihn mit einem Kinderwagen kplt. zu befahren. Sollten Sie das nur das Stück über die Feldwege in Betracht ziehen und das Wald- und Nettestück außen vor lassen, wäre es zu machen. Allerdings ist dieser Teil des Traumpfädchens langweilig und...es gibt keinen Schatten.

    Der Weg ist 7,5 km lang. An einer Stelle kreuzt sich der Weg, daher fehlte bei der Wanderung evtl. das untere Stück.

    Hallo, wir haben nichts ausgelassen und die Route in der APP verfolgt. Vielleicht hat ja unser GPS einen Hänger. 😎🙋‍♂️
