This short stage is also ideal for a hike with children, as the kids can let off steam in the playground at the Beerenschlade hiking portal and in Referinghausen the stations of the Milk Trailto playfully discover the path of milk. The natural path leads along the edge of the forest, always slightly downhill, with the Dittelsbach babbling to the left.

You should plan some time in Referinghausen itself, because here you will find the Open Mind Places, places in the middle of nature that invite you to pause, slow down and linger.

Directions

The mountain trail is marked throughout with the "Maltese Cross", the sign of the crusaders.Wherever possible, we have placed red stickers with this cross; in the open countryside, we have sometimes preferred paint and brushes, where you will find white crosses on a black background.From the bakery, we walk via "Am Rothenberg" to the Beerenschlade hiking portal. Along the edge of the forest, with the Dittelsbach to the left, to Referinghausen.

Equipment

Sturdy shoes and clothing suitable for the weather.

Safety guidelines

Current information about our forests - The bark beetle and its consequences


The forest owners are endeavoring to take the necessary measures in the forests and to remove the damaged wood. However, due to the extent of the damage, this work cannot be completed in a short space of time. The clearing and reforestation of the damaged forest stands will therefore take a long time and sometimes lead to disruptions such as closures and detour in the forests. This must always be taken into account when visiting the forest.


We therefore appeal to everyone who cares about the forest:



  • Understand that extensive forestry work is necessary in the current situation and that this is currently accompanying your forest experience.

  • Be particularly attentive during your leisure activities and observe the prevailing instructions and any prohibitions


Please be considerate ...
