Versatile hiking route in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Lovers of castles and fortresses will get their money's worth on this wonderful tour. The start is not far from the Littardkuhlen - lake-like bodies of water. You cross the Littardsche Kendel, one of the aforementioned pools, and walk eastwards along the banks of the Hacksteinkuhlen. After a while, you will reach Bloemersheim Castle, a late medieval moated castle and one of the most interesting buildings in the region. It is almost completely surrounded by the Littardsche Kendel. Later, along the Niep Canal, you also reach Leyenburg Castle on the Kleiner Parsick. The return route then takes you halfway round Bloemersheim Castle again before reaching the starting point.
