We leave the town behind us and drive past the Poppenberg up to the Borberg. This old cult site offers a great view of Olsberg. With a view of the Bruchhauser Steine, we head towards Elleringhausen and from there over to the neighboring Hoppecke valley. From the Hoppecke valley, we climb the border trail between Hessen and NRW and enjoy pure nature. From Bontkirchen, the mountainous route takes us past the Diemel dam on single trails and finally back into the forest. Via Jickjackmühle and Poppenberg, we roll relaxed on asphalt back to Brilon.
