Varied circular hiking trail around the Höxter district of Brenkhausen. Narrow forest paths, field paths and meadow paths alternate. In addition, there are always new views over the landscape, the Brenkhausen monastery complex and the calcareous grasslands on the Räuschenberg.

The varied hike around Brenkhausen starts north-east of the village at the "Räuschenberg" nature reserve. The sunny slopes of the Räuschenberg are traditionally grazed by goats. While in spring you can marvel at the colorful flowers, in summer oregano and thyme provide a Mediterranean flair with their aromatic scent.

The interplay of short, steep climbs and the wide views of the landscape that open up are what make this 16 km circular tour so special. There are also narrow, winding forest paths and trails along meandering streams. The small-scale landscape with individual farms and pastures is often divided by hedges, which are particularly important for birds and wildlife.

The view of the Brenkhausen monastery complex is also impressive. Today, the General Bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Church in Germany has his headquarters here. Monastic life is blossoming anew here in the spirit of ecumenism and hand in hand with the Catholic Church. Be sure to plan a visit and experience oriental hospitality and warmth for yourself.

A special thanks goes to the Wanderfreunde Schelpetal, who not only mark the path well but also regularly cut it free.
