Winterberg-Hallenberg circuit

We start at the tourist information in Winterberg and drive along the shopping street "Am Waltenberg" in the direction of the town hall on Fichtenweg. We stay on the Fichtenweg and pass the barracks on the right at the end. At the crossroads we cross the main road and cycle left along Kurweg in the direction of Altastenberg. On the northern slope we meet the L 640 and follow the road uphill. After a few hundred meters we turn diagonally left and cycle uphill to the summit. The panorama and the high heath landscape invite you to linger. We now orient ourselves at the parking lot in front of us and follow the signs of the Sauerland-Höhenflug. After a short stretch we reach the As4, which we follow downhill to the Landwehr refuge. We cycle downhill along the tarred road to Helleplatz and cross the main road. From there we cycle along the W3 through an extensive forest landscape in the direction of Züschen. There we cross the river Ahre and follow the GeoRadroute over a former railroad line to Hallenberg. In Hallenberg we turn left onto the R49 to Hesborn. At the end we turn left on the country road then in the left curve right again on the W2. At first we have to cope with a decent climb. In the forest, however, the climb flattens out somewhat and we follow the W2 over an extensive forest passage to Winterberg.
