The A6 circular hiking trail leads hikers in a large circle over the heights between Willertshagen and Hohen- and Niederhengestenberg. The path runs exclusively on asphalt, so that this hiking trail is particularly suitable for families with baby carriages or people with limited mobility with appropriate walking aids. However, the ascents and descents along the route, which have to be mastered along the way, should be noted. However, these are always rewarded with beautiful views of the surrounding area.
Starting at the Stoltenberg hiking parking lot, we briefly head towards Willertshagen before turning left and following the asphalt path downhill. We cross the still young Lister, whereupon the path climbs again. At the top, we have a great panoramic view of the surrounding area.The path now leads us downhill to Niederhengstenberg. Here we continue along the small road, then walk through the settlements of "Auf der Heid" and "Grünentahl" and finally return to Willertshagen, running parallel to the small nature reserve "Willertshagener Wiesen".From here, it is only a few meters to our starting point, the Stoltenberg hiking parking lot.
As these are also predominantly busy, small roads, the (possible) traffic should always be kept in view.
First aid: In an emergency, dial the emergency number 112 and state the rescue point number. Rescue points are access points marked in the forest for rescue vehicles. If the nearest rescue point is not known, your location can be called up directly via AML (Advanced Mobile Location) during the emergency call.
After the hike, hikers can stop for refreshments at the Hotel Bauer (Willertshagen 10, Tel. 02354/7085502, info@hotel-bauer-meinerzhagen.de), along the hiking trail.
