Quitmann Tower on the Kohlberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The climb is rewarded with a fantastic view over the upper Hönne valley with Neuenrade and Küntrop. If the visibility is good, you can see far into the Sauerland.

Due to the pleasant slope and relatively little traffic one of the best road bike routes of Iserlohn or Hemer. The route can be continued in the direction of Neuenrade or Hemer-Ihmert, Iserlohn-Kesbern, Hegenscheid or Altena.
