Without any major inclines (with the exception of two smaller climbs), you will always come across beautiful views of Schmallenberg. It is worth walking this circular route in any weather. However, sturdy footwear is recommended, especially on rainy days, as some passages can be slippery.Important information:The Römerbrücke bridge is currently closed for structural reasons. At the junction to the Römerbrücke, follow the path straight ahead (Philosophenpfad) to get back to your starting point.
