Listersee

Cycling experience
The region also offers you a perfect infrastructure for cycling. In addition to the typically sweeping Sauerland landscape of hills, forests and valleys, secluded roads and challenging trails offer optimal conditions. The Bigge-Lister-Höhenroute is divided into a challenging high-altitude route and an idyllic lake route. Whether you want to go on a leisurely bike ride with your family or plan a mountain bike tour - you've come to the right place. There is a direct connection from Wenden to the Bigge-Lister cycle ring in Olpe. Are you already familiar with the mountain bike park in Attendorn or the pump track in Meinerzhagen? If you would prefer to 'experience' the tours on an e-bike, you will find further information on rental stations and charging stations.

Hiking experience
Hikers have the opportunity to explore the landscape around Listersee on the Bigge-Lister trail, partly on flat routes directly along the lake and partly on challenging high-altitude routes. You may come across galloping hay bales on the KulTour in Drolshagen, an art and landscape circular trail around Listersee, or discover the region on idyllic hiking trails. Olpe, Attendorn, Meinerzhagen and Wenden also have numerous and varied hiking trails to discover. The Waldweg Grenzenlos forest trail in Olpe offers a barrier-free circular trail. Things get interesting in the hedge maze in Drolshagen, but don't worry - you won't get lost.
