A very nice path - without any major highlights, but - if you look closely - lots of nice "little things".
I was just surprised that no wild boar walked over my feet 🫣....the path was completely churned up by them for long stretches and in one place or another I could smell them....

Von den Premiumwanderwegen im St. Wendeler Land gehört der Bärenpfad zu den richtig guten. Die Tour hat einen hohen Pfadanteil. Auch im Herbst und Winter ist der Bärenpfad wie auch die Weiselberg-Gipfeltour gut zu gehen da es nicht so viele oder nur sehr wenige matschige Passagen gibt. Warum beide Touren mit wenigen Punkten bewertet wurden ist für …

On May 1st...I thought...let's walk the bear path, there's definitely not that much going on there! puff cake! 😏... today was the Bärenfelslauf and on the first half of the route participants kept coming towards us! But it was done with mutual consideration and it is better for them to come to you than to be breathing down our necks …

This morning I was very undecided about which tour it should be today. It's good that it was this tour. Quiet and often over paths, up and down. It only got a bit loud near Nohfelden or the A62. But once I laid down quite a bit🙄 A little wooden bridge, greasy like in autumn. I was careful and still …

Cold, gray and windy. But from time to time the sun came through, then it was really nice on the almost only narrow paths. Taking the remains of Nohfelden Castle with you on the tour was a good idea. Thank you Katja for the nice selection 🙋🏼‍♀️.

A tour actually without highlights, but almost 100% trail.

Yes, the Bear Trail is really good, if it weren't for the fact that in some places the path is almost impassable due to wind damage. This urgently needs to be remedied!!!
