Rothaarsteig - stage from Brilon to Bruchhausen

From the historic Brilon marketplace, the official starting point of the route, always follow the lying “R” on a red background. Access points are located at Olsberg Tourism, in the center of Elleringhausen, and in Brilon-Wald.

You explore the mysterious ruins of Borbergs Kirchhof. The themed path “Meiler, Wälle, Wüstungen” leads to cultural-historical sites. Already from afar, the eleven-meter-high Fire Oak shines colorfully in the sun, wrapped by a bronze band as a symbolic flame. At Ginsterkopf, a 360-degree panorama enchants. The view stretches endlessly over mountains and valleys. Whether early morning or late afternoon, spring or autumn – the Rothaarsteig has its own unique charm at every time of day and year.
