The Brilon hiking trail (B1) runs along Rochusstraße and Burhagener Weg, into the wonderfully idyllic Hillbringse area. The Hiebammenhütte is the perfect place to stop for refreshments. Along the Rothaarsteig trail, you reach the Borberg, a highlight with its archaeological finds and the impressive Marienkapelle chapel as well as a breathtaking panorama. The circular tour finally loops back to the starting point in Brilon and promises a wonderful hiking experience in the heart of the Sauerland.
