At the foot of the St. Muffert cliff. Before we scramble up, I imagine there's a cable car. The kind with little gondolas like you see in amusement parks.
The GeoPark guide Gerd Rosenkranz promises to reveal the secret of how the Sauerland was actually formed at the summit. >>You can read on here and find out the continuation of the story.
From the banks of the Diemel reservoir up to the summit. With a parking lot and snack bar at the bottom and a panorama café at the top. Sure, you would have had to cut a path through the beautiful forest along the ropes. But you could have reached the top in three minutes and without breaking a sweat. Does that sound tempting? My little fantasy has a real core, the plan for a cable car really did exist once. Thank goodness it was scrapped. It wasn't just the deforestation that would have been an outrage. The aerial travelers would also have deprived themselves of the pleasure of a hike full of discoveries.
