Hiking, relaxation, nature and hospitality

Hospitality...
... this is the motto under which the municipality of Wenden presents itself as an attractive excursion and vacation destination.

Beautiful meadow valleys and the densely wooded low mountain range characterize the picture. A well-developed network of cycle paths and around 320 km of well-marked hiking trails make the municipality of Wenden accessible to holidaymakers. Relax in peaceful nature, recharge your batteries and unwind - a stay in the Sauerland's southernmost municipality will leave its mark.

At the same time, guests can still experience old Sauerland customs up close in Wenden. Shooting festivals or summer festivals - just a small selection from the wide range of events in the municipality.
Every year in August, Wenden is transformed into a huge fairground. The largest funfair in Südwestfalen is on the agenda. With big rides, stalls and lots of good food and drink. It's well worth a visit!

Beautiful old churches and chapels, the Wendener Hütte, one of the oldest preserved charcoal blast furnaces in Germany, invite you to visit and discover.

First-class gastronomy in the quaint, rustic village inn or in the exquisite gourmet restaurant and accommodation establishments of every category pamper the guest.
