Course of the circular hiking trail

The middle tour of the circular hiking trail W11 leads with 8,9km first along the short tour and then to the east to a clearing with heather. We continue to the forest area "Vor dem Hassel" and on the state road 281.


The path continues towards the northwest and soon passes through a valley between two higher hills. The hiking car park "Am Eicksberg" with a view of the wide heath areas of the Misselhorner Heide and the Tiefental valley invites you to take a break before passing through a forest area. Numerous pits are hidden here, testifying to the blasting of ammunition remnants after the Second World War.


At a refuge, the path turns left and continues along the Angelbecksbusch forest area along road 281. Shortly afterwards, it crosses the Angelbach river, which leaves the Angelbecksteich pond to the east, before returning to the starting point.
Die mittlere Tour ist neben dem abgebildeten Piktogramm mit einem mittelgroßen gelben Kreis gekennzeichnet.
