The Gravel - Rock Tour No. 21 starts south of Olsberg and leads along the Olsberg. The first section is characterized by a challenging climb, followed by a passage through wooded areas on the Heidkopf. The trail then descends before another ascent leads to the Ochsenkreuz and on to the Langenberg, the highest mountain in the Sauerland. From this prominent point, the route winds its way down to Bruchhausen in an extended descent. The rest of the route runs through the forest, opening up views and passing below the impressive Bruchhauser Steine near Elleringhausen. The tour continues towards Habberg and Borberg with varying elevation profiles. Finally, the Lange Berg north of Olsberg is crossed before the tour reaches its end point with an enjoyable descent.
