Circular Routes


Historic Wire Trade Trail

Even during  hiking the people from Altena still have wire on their mind. The route of the wire drawers can be walked on the historic thematic road. From Altena you can head south towards Lüdenscheid or north to Iserlohn or walk the entire 32 km  into one direction. And if that shouldn't be enough, there is the quality hiking route "Sauerland forest route" (Sauerland Waldroute), from Iserlohn. A few Geocaches have been hidden along the way.
