On this tour you can expect natural and industrial history and all sorts of legends and myths from the Arnsberg forest. In Rüthen, first follow the access road in the direction of the Waldroute through the Möhne valley with the destination Bibertal.

Here you pass the gate to the Waldroute. A detour into the valley offers the opportunity to visit the environmental education station "Waldschiff" or the forest experience beaver trail. The trail continues through the Arnsberg forest to Kallenhardt, where you can take a short break at the Romantikhotel Knippschild.

From the village the path leads over wide areas, which in many places still show the lime mining, to the Hoher Stein. Via an access road it now goes towards the destination, passing Suttrop. Here, too, there are traces of Suttrop's lime history, such as the lime kiln or the diamond path.

Past Suttrop, the route now leads in the direction of Warstein Markt with some nice places to stop for refreshments.

Safty guidelines

Information about the rescue boards on the Sauerland-WaldrouteMostly hiking trails run away from villages and settlements and every hiker has already thought about what would happen if there was an emergency. How can I be found here? Where am I at all? Can the rescue service reach me?But in an emergency, things have to happen quickly! That's why the Sauerland-Waldroute is equipped with so-called rescue signs throughout. On the green and white plaques, which are attached to the posts of the signposts, there is a number that you have to give when you make your emergency call. This way, the emergency services know exactly where you are and valuable time can be saved.
