We leave Olsberg to the south and orientate ourselves on the Olsberg. After this long ascent, we pass the Heidkopf, continue downhill through the forest and immediately start climbing again, past the Ochsenkreuz, to the Langenberg, the highest mountain in the Sauerland. From here, we cycle a good 300 meters downhill to Bruchhausen. The path leads us through the forest with beautiful views below the stones past Elleringhausen and up and down towards Habberg and Borberg. This is followed by the Langer Berg in the north of Olsberg, and after a beautiful descent we have completed the Olsberg mountain tour.
