This side of the Lenne river is slightly more quiet in comparison to the adjacent hill that accommodates the well-known Altena castle. On this idyllic circular route you will see birds flying around and you may even encounter roedeer.

You will walk through the woods, west of the Lenne river, around the Latten mountain and at a later stage you will pass the Tiergarten quarter that is part of the central city of Altena, but doesn't bear any ressemblance to a city.  Beautiful views of the Altena castle are included and then you will continue over the Lenne river and through Altena's town centre back to the starting point.

The entire road is marked by identification letter A2.

Author’s recommendation

Behind the green gate alongside the road there is a half-hidden pond which is particularly idyllic in the snow.

Schöne Tour mit tollen Aussichten! ABER: Ein Teil der Route ist nicht sooo begehbar, wie angegeben. Wir haben allerdings Lösungen gefunden.

Die Tour war super, zwar sind es teilweise sehr schmale und kaum erkennbare Wege am Anfang, aber per GPS gut zu finden.
