The gorge and bridge path in Winterberg leads for around 4.2 kilometers through the low mountain gorge of the "Helle". The circular path begins in the heart of Winterberg, right next to the spa park, and it is hard to believe that such a special natural jewel can be found so close to the city. The hike is entertaining, but leads downhill quite steeply in places, so sturdy shoes are advisable. In addition, the leafy paths can be very slippery, especially in autumn.

A really great experience and almost in the middle of the city. You almost feel like you're in the primeval forest.

Absolutely hiking route with narrow paths and lots of variety.

Can you walk it nicely with a stroller

The largest of the mountain heaths in north-west Germany, which are rare in Europe, is in Niedersfeld. The wide, tree-poor landscape turns into a pink carpet of heather flowers in late summer. The protected area is rightly one of the natural treasures of South Westphalia.

Very nice hiking wagon through the gorge.

"... The Neue Hagen near Niedersfeld is the largest high heathland in North Rhine-Westphalia. The extraordinary landscape exerts a very special fascination. Heath and high moor are home to rare flora and fauna. The 800 meter high area is on the border to Hesse on the northern slope of the Clemensberg and has been a nature reserve since 1955. Heath sheep graze there, act as "biological lawn mowers" and thus ensure the preservation of the heath. Birds such as the cuckoo, wood grouse and nightjar build their nests. Hobby biologists can even discover arctic and alpine plants in the Neuer Hagen nature reserve. ..." https://www.winterberg.de/poi/nreservation-neuer-hagen/

"... Sheep love to eat fresh greens. That's why you can let them eat wherever there should only be short stalks and low plants in the end. Everything that is young and fresh is eaten. The gentle animals are suitable are therefore ideal as biological lawnmowers. What does that have to do with biodiversity? Meager meadows and heaths are particularly valuable habitats, because many rare animal and plant species live here. But if such landscapes are not maintained regularly, then bushes and trees will grow - and in a few decades there will be nothing left of the meadows and heaths. This is exactly what the sheep do: they eat the young shoots of the bushes and trees and thus prevent them from growing. ..." https://naturdetektive.bfn.de/lexikon/tiere/saeugetiere/schafe-hueter-der-biologische-vielfalt.html
