The region south of Brilon, marked by the Bruchhauser Steinen, provides an impressive backdrop for an extended cycle tour. The tour begins on paved tarred and gravel paths that lead to the Hiebammen hut. The path continues up to the Borberg, whose summit is home to the Borberg churchyard. There you will find the remains of a 9th century rampart, a testimony to historical architecture. From this point, there is a far-reaching view over Olsberg and the Ruhr Valley. A subsequent singletrail descent in the direction of Elleringhausen provides a dynamic riding experience. The circular route leads along the striking Feuereiche oak tree and ends again at the Hiebammen hut, where you can stop for refreshments.
